Are U.S. Millennial Men Just as Sexist as Their Dads?

This is from the Harvard Business Review.

I had no idea it was this bad... I mean, jeeeez...

I would postulate that there is an age factor there as well - the attitudes of those 65 y.o.s have evolved dramatically, and I would guess that on average they started out less open minded than the guys in the survey.

anecdotally, as the mom, mom in law and friend of moms of guys in their 20's, that isn't at all what I'm seeing.

otoh, my answer to the title question would be "yes" because these young men were raised by dads whom I would not call "sexist."

Well, I can't blame you. It was written by women.

I think many millennial age people don't have a real understanding of the cultural transitions that older folk have gone through. I grew up in the era of "someday your prince will come" with very established male and female roles which was then followed by bra-burning parties and so on. It has been pretty amazing actually. I haven't personally witnessed any obvious sexism in younger males. In the US anyway.
