There’s a clear gender divide in the attitudes toward the concepts of feminism and equality between the sexes, and the divide is most jarring among young people, according to a new study conducted in the U.K.
Close to half of the respondents said that they thought that it was harder to be a woman than a man today, while only 14% said the reverse. But the distribution of answers differed dramatically by gender, especially for those aged between 16 and 29. In that age group, some 68% of women said that it was harder to be a woman, while only 35% of men agreed with that statement.
“This is a new and unusual generational pattern – normally, it tends to be the case that younger generations are consistently more comfortable with emerging social norms, as they grew up with these as a natural part of their lives,” commented Professor Bobby Duffry, Director of the Policy Institute at King’s College London.
“That includes much more work on understanding the challenges facing young men today, or we risk that void being filled by celebrities and influencers, and this nascent divide being exacerbated,” he added.
