本文分析性别是否会影响欧洲议会议员在X(原Twitter)上的传播行为,以及平等相关议题和LGBTQ+议题是否会影响可见度、语气与互动模式。研究基于对620名欧洲议会议员2022年发布的122972条推文进行的自动化内容、情感及网络分析,结果显示:女性推文更频繁,在推广内容中更具可见性;男性则倾向于发表观点驱动及新闻导向的内容。平等与LGBTQ+议题在女性推文中的占比(8.6%)高于男性(4.0%),女性推文语气也更积极。不过,互动模式仅受性别轻微影响,网络关系主要反映政治团体归属与国家代表团属性。总体而言,尽管女性欧洲议会议员更多参与平等相关议题,其数字传播仍嵌入既有政治结构,这表明是渐进的话语变革而非实质性结构转型。
英文摘要
This article analyses whether gender shapes Members of the European Parliament's communication on X/Twitter and whether equality-related and LGBTQ+ issues influence patterns of visibility, tone and interaction. Drawing on automated content, sentiment and network analysis of 122,972 tweets posted in 2022 by 620 MEPs, the study finds that women tweeted more frequently and were more visible in promotional content, while men favoured opinion-driven and news-focused messages. Equality and LGBTQ+ topics appeared more often in women's tweets (8.6%) than in men's (4.0%), and women's posts showed a more positive tone. However, interaction patterns were only marginally shaped by gender; instead, networks largely reflected political-group affiliation and national delegation. Overall, the findings suggest that although female MEPs engage more with equality-related issues, their digital communication remains embedded in established political structures, indicating gradual discursive change rather than substantive structural transformation.
