New research has found that boys and young men have more conservative views on gender than baby boomers. Over 3,600 people were polled by Ipsos for King’s College London’s Policy Institute and the Global Institute for Women’s Leadership. 16 per cent of young men agreed with the statement “feminism has done more harm than good”, while just 13 per cent of over-60s felt the same. The figures show that one in four UK males aged 16 to 29 believe it is harder to be a man than a woman. This is in spite of a quarter of women experiencing some form of sexual violence and the UK gender pay gap standing at 7.7 per cent. The survey also found that 68 per cent of women the same age believe it is harder to be a woman than a man.
