Gen Z boys and men more likely than baby boomers to believe feminism harmful, says poll
Boys and men from generation Z are more likely than older baby boomers to believe that feminism has done more harm than good, according to research that shows a “real risk of fractious division among this coming generation”.
…
On feminism, 16% of gen Z males felt it had done more harm than good. Among over-60s the figure was 13%.
The figures emerged from Ipsos polling for King’s College London’s Policy Institute and the Global Institute for Women’s Leadership. The research also found that 37% of men aged 16 to 29 consider “toxic masculinity” an unhelpful phrase, roughly double the number of young women who don’t like it.
“This is a new and unusual generational pattern,” said Prof Bobby Duffy, director of the Policy Institute. “Normally, it tends to be the case that younger generations are consistently more comfortable with emerging social norms, as they grew up with these as a natural part of their lives.”

Men were never required to "hold doors open" or "be the breadwinner". They only did those things during a certain time in a certain place and for a particular reason: to make women like them. You don't have to do that now and it has nothing to do with "feminism".
Women worked for money and opened doors for thousands of years. This may be surprising to some people, but in many places women used to manage all the money because they were going to town and selling products every market day.
If you're a male farmer, you are basically interchangeable with any other farmer. Women had to be good at math and negotiating. "Women be shopping" as they say.
What a shit take on the past.
