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."
I don't think it's that "shocking", social media is littered with anti-feminist propaganda (part of the entire anti-anything vaguely left wing propaganda). It's all funded by right wing think tanks/billionaires too, so they have infinite money to spend. It's incessant too. If you create a new account on YouTube or Facebook, twitter and now threads, you just get promoted right wing media.
