<br/><br/> The unequal access of men and women to urban public space is long-established in social sciences research. However, the understanding of the socialization processes underlying these gendered inequalities is incomplete. Drawing on in-depth interviews conducted in Paris (France) and Milan (Italy) with parents (n = 88) of children aged eight to fourteen (n = 123), this article focuses on parental supervision of children’s urban practices. The analysis shows the transmission of different norms and representations according to the children’s biological sex and empirically sheds light on the socio-genesis of gendered uses of public space.
