In this work we study gender bias in Italian word embeddings (WEs), evaluating whether they encode gender stereotypes studied in social psychology or present in the labor market. We find strong associations with gender in job-related WEs. Weaker gender stereotypes are present in other domains where grammatical gender plays a significant role
