Consequently twice as likely not to have a wife 🀣 fuck you. I'm not obeying anyone, ever, under any circumstance.

They're too young to have been married, where their wife will disabuse them of this concept very quickly.

People of both genders in Indonesia (66%) and Malaysia (60%) were most likely to agree with the statement, compared with 23% in the US and 13% in Great Britain.

How do you act surprised with this is beyond me.

The survey the article is based on is not of good quality (I'm being polite)... People without a proper degree in statistics should not be allowed to get anywhere near numbers... Here the [link] of the PDF: (https://www.kcl.ac.uk/assets/news/iwd-2026-global-charts-final.pdf)

Even with those numbers, it's still frustrating.

You can see in the data that the country dominates attitude. Using only the global averages against the generational buckets isn't very useful. I want to see the generational breakdown BY COUNTRY.

If you think one gender needs to be subservient to another you’re either an evil person, a stupid person, or both.

I am slowly discarding my differentiations between stupid and evil, there's a different, mysterious third thing that combines both but exists on its own. And whatever this thing is, it's raging through our population like fire through dry brush.

At some point I’m not going to care if the punch you’re swinging at me is from ignorance or not. I’m still getting hit and I’d be stupid not to defend myself.

So I question how much of this actually takes into account massive cultural differences and how that can skew the results since this is apparently a global survey.

As a Malaysian, i'll let you guess the reason.
