Yeah I saw this over on Mastodon, and there were a lot of stats folks questioning the methodology. I'm not qualified to do that, but my sons are Zoomers as are all their male friends, and they are all good feminists. This is in NW Europe, so might be a bit biased.
We're talking 16% vs 13%. Still a small minority. Based on what groups of people these are concentrated in, and what group you run in, it's completely plausible you don't know any of them well enough to understand this is how they feel.

So it seems it’s largely ethnic minorities in this age bracket that support this view?
What’s the bet that correlates strongly with religiousness.
Well, in the old days US women couldn't even vote. Feminism was thus more important than it is today. It's not really surprising to me that opponents increase by 3% points as women win more equality.
