---|---|---|---|
Gender equality | 1.05 (0.92, 1.18) | 1.07 (0.96, 1.20) | 0.03 (–0.04, 0.10) |
Gender power | 0.98* (0.96, 1.00) | 0.99 (0.97, 1.01) | –0.01 (–0.02, 0.01) |

Variance partition coefficient | 0.55% | 0.40% | 0.26% |
All models were adjusted for age and education level as individual-level covariates and religion and sex ratio as nation-level covariates. For sexual identity, heterosexual men are the reference group. For sexual attraction (ordinal), men who are predominantly not sexually attracted to the same-sex are the reference group. We reported adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals for ordinal outcome variable, and regression coefficients (beta) and 95% confidence intervals for continuous outcome. The variance partition coefficient is interpreted as the proportion of the total residual variance in the propensity to be nonheterosexual/attracted to the same-sex is due to differences between nations
