    There is 1 single problem with this survey: it centers on the average among different parts of a world instead of showing the percentage for each country or region clearly. This actually twists the perception of data, since in some countries religion and traditions are stronger or simply more citizens exist. Moreover, in a single big country like the US each state is a like a separate mini country what also makes data more mixed.

    I personally would like to see something like a map of temperatures for each country before judging the situation.

      The study has each country listed out. It’s just the press releases that don’t. The study didn’t break out each age cohort for each country. That can be inferred but there are likely a few surprises, and the bias you mention from cultural groups with a larger population

      Here’s the comment with the study link:

      Here’s an example:

        Wow that changes a lot about the title.

        Taking it at face value you’d walk away thinking this is the dominant attitude in most of the western world, when that’s not the takeaway at all. A title like that just makes most men and women think their country is more conservative than previously thought. Talk about not helping young people that have more balanced views.

      Thank you! I’ve commented in another post how bad the survey is, glad to see I’m not the only one
