Divison among people has been present since ancient times, and the most common division is the one according to sex. The division by gender plays a big role in the life of an individual, since it is represented in all aspects of his life. Sex is determined by biology, while gender is not. Namely, gender is the definition of gender by society, and it is defined by culture and therefore can change in time and space (Lithander, 2000, according to Jugović, 2004). The main objectives of the research are to examine student's attitudes about gender relations, the level of gender conservatism based on student's attitudes about traditional and modern sexism, and to examine to what extent student attitudes are related to the religiosity variable and social background variables (level of parent's education, the size of town or city they grew up in, the distribution of power in the family, assessment of the family's economic status and regional affiliation). The results reveal that the respondents express more gender egalitarian attitudes compared to the general population in Croatia. Attitudes are determined by variables of gender, and mostly religiosity.
