Romanians have limited perceptions of gender inequalities and continue to maintain traditional views on the roles of women and men, according to Eurostat data from the survey on the perception of gender stereotypes, processed by Social Monitor, a project of the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung Romania.
Traditional gender roles continue to be more accepted in Romania and in countries in the region: 74% of Bulgarians consider that the most important role of a man is to earn money, as do 69% of Poles and 60% of Romanians, while the EU average is 42%. By comparison, in Germany only 38% of respondents consider this the main role of men, and in Sweden, only 11% agree.
