There’s a real possibility of acrimonious split among this coming generation of men and boys, according to evidence that suggests that they are more likely than elder baby boomers to believe that feminism has done more harm than good.
One in four men in the UK between the ages of 16 and 29 believe it is harder to be a man than a woman, according to a survey of more than 3,600 people, and a fifth of them now have positive opinions of social media influencer Andrew Tate, as reported by the Guardian.
Tate, an ex-kickboxer who is British-American and has 8.7 million followers on social media platform X, is charged with rape, human trafficking, and founding a criminal organization in Romania with the goal of abusing women sexually.
He’s declared himself to be “absolutely a misogynist” and made remarks about hitting and strangling women.
Tate also has a negative image among feminist and progressive organizations, who see him as a global threat to women’s safety.
Furthermore, only 12% of women in the same age range had the same positive opinions of best-selling author and Canadian academic Jordan Peterson as do 32% of men.
However, a higher proportion of young men continue to have unfavorable views of Tate, think that feminism has done more good than harm, and think that being a woman in the modern world is more difficult than being a man.
Tate, a man of mixed ethnicity, stated that prior to his conversion to Islam, he was an atheist.In tweets written in Jamaican patois, he said that melanin, the pigment present in skin, “gives wisdom and insight, along with bravery and physical power.”
Tate, who encourages young men to take responsibility for their lives, can be heard shouting at them in a recent video while showing off his sports vehicle, weapon, and vape pen: “You’re not supposed to be happy.” You are expected to possess enormous ability and influence.
