Skillnaderna mellan könen har ökat. I alla fall ifråga om attityder, t.ex. om feminism och könsroller.

The most likely causes of this growing division are education (young men are getting less of it than young women), experience (advanced countries have become less sexist, and men and women experience this differently) and echo chambers (social media aggravate polarisation). Also, in democracies, many politicians on the right are deftly stoking young male grievances, while many on the left barely acknowledge that young men have real problems. But they do, starting with education. Although the men at the top are doing fine, many of the rest are struggling.
