The article shows that students’ vulnerability to manipulation, their psychological gender, locus of control and self-confidence are linked together. Students’ vulnerability to the manipulations of both sexes is positively correlated with the performance of their femininity. The internality of boys and girls is positively associated with their confidence and social courage. The confidence of students-boys and students -girls positively correlates with their masculinity. Some personality features and the relationships between them have been identified, which differ for boys and girls. Significant signs of feminization of boys are discovered.

Keywords: vulnerability against manipulation; masculinity; femininity; internality; self-confidence; social courage; the students.
