Here’s a surprise. Male boomers are much more attuned to gender equality in partnerships that young Gen Z men. A global survey of 23,000 people found the latter, born between 1997 and 2012 were twice as likely as the former (born 1946-1964) to hold traditional views on decision making within a marriage. Just 13% of men in the older cohort thought that a wife should always obey her husband. Among women, 18% of gen Z and 6% of baby boomers agreed, though it should be noted that the survey covered 29 counties with varying cultures.
