MODERATORS
 
  • 3600 boys and men were polled in London
  • 16 percent said that feminism was more harmful than good
  • one in four said that men said that being a man was harder than being a woman
  • one in five said they view Andrew Tate positively
  • 32 percent said they view Jordan Peterson positively
  • 37 percent said that "toxic masculinity" is an unhelpful phrase

Professor Bobby Duffy, director of the Policy Institute, said the opposing views of some young men and women is a surprising trend. "This is a new and unusual generational pattern," he said.

The reason for the contrasting views of young men and women could be the result of social media consumption. That's the view of Rosie Campbell, Director of the Global Institute for Women's Leadership at King's. She said: "The fact that this group is the first to derive most of their information from social media is likely to be at least part of the explanation."

You can't just flip the questions because of all the neutral answers, exact wording matters which is why surveys are easy to bullshit.

We have no idea the split between neutral and negative views in this survey so it could be depressing or not, inconclusive.
