Boys and men from generation Z are more likely than older baby boomers to believe that feminism has done more harm than good, according to research that shows a “real risk of fractious division among this coming generation”.

On feminism, 16% of gen Z males felt it had done more harm than good. Among over-60s the figure was 13%.

The figures emerged from Ipsos polling for King’s College London’s Policy Institute and the Global Institute for Women’s Leadership. The research also found that 37% of men aged 16 to 29 consider “toxic masculinity” an unhelpful phrase, roughly double the number of young women who don’t like it.

“This is a new and unusual generational pattern,” said Prof Bobby Duffy, director of the Policy Institute. “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.”

I can't believe I actually had a full on moment of, "thankfully that's not me" before realising I'm not a boy or a man anyway.

This is sad and concerning though

Well, that's a new one. Not that surprising, though.

"1/5th of one quarter of the small group of men who participated in one survey that was only taken in a single country know who Andrew Tate is and approve of him, thus all GenZ men hate feminism"

This article is a fucking joke

Considering the kind of feminists that are extremely loud today, and how they're borderline, if not literally, misandrist... I'm not entirely surprised.

This, of course, leaves them wide open to suggestion from bad actors like Andrew Tate.

LOL people have vomited precisely what you just said for 100 years on this subject. Of course, 100 years ago, they were using the police to torture women who wanted to vote, so maybe there is progress.

Feminism has 100% turned into a push for superiority, not equality.

Modern feminists believe it's "their turn" to be the abusers.

Just listen to the disparaging jokes we've all heard them make towards men and imagine how they would react if the same things were said about women.
