A new survey from the American Enterprise Institute (AEI) has found substantial differences among Gen Z men and women with regards to politics and feminism.
A new survey has found that America's younger generation is polarized by gender, with young men and women holding highly different political viewpoints. According to The American Enterprise Institute’s Survey Center on American Life, 42% of Generation Z women identify as liberal, compared to 35% of Gen Z men. Gen Z refers broadly to the demographic born between the mid-1990s and early 2010s. This gap widens considerably among White men and women.
Religious affiliation and LGBTQ identification also differ significantly in Generation Z compared to previous generations. More than 1 in 3 Gen Z adults say they are not affiliated with a religion, doubling the numbers found among Baby Boomers. Furthermore, Gen Z is five times more likely to identify as LGBTQ. While most Americans have their first romantic experiences during their formative years, teenagers today are increasingly less likely to have a romantic partner. I AM GEN Z.
The same cannot be said of Gen Z. Only 52% of Gen Z adults said they regularly attended religious services in their teens, while 45% said they did not participate at all. Despite these figures, Gen Z is less likely to use alcohol and drugs than older generations. Less than one-third of Gen Z reported occasional alcohol, cigarette, or drug use as teenagers.
