Gen Z males hold more traditional views on gender than baby boomer men

06 March 2026

A global study has found that 31% of Gen Z males believe women should always obey their husbands, while only 13% of baby boomer men believe this, raising questions about the kinds of male role models and gender dynamics reflected across media, from entertainment to advertising..   The annual global survey of over 16s – a collaboration between King’s College London and Ipsos – also found that Gen Z males were twice as likely as baby boomer men to hold traditional views on decision-making within a marriage.

WARC has become essential for addressing our brands' category challenges with Gen Z consumers. The global insights from case studies, articles and trend reports directly inform our client presentations and campaign strategies. The platform keeps us current with marketing trends while providing inspiration for our work.
