ps22c040It's good for babies under the age of 1 to be in day care 2 or 3 days a week.
ps22c041It's good for 1-year-old babies to be in day care 2 or 3 days a week.
ps22c042It’s good for toddlers aged between 2 and 3 to be in day care 2 or 3 days a week.
ps22c043It’s good for children aged between 4 and 12 to go to out-of-school care 2 or 3 days a week.
ps22c163I think it is important that more men start working in healthcare
ps22c044Women are better suited to care for small children than men
ps22c165Women are just as suited for jobs in engineering as men.
ps22c047Men are on average a little more ambitious than women
ps22c166A woman is more suitable to care for loved ones who need help (such as old or sick parents, friends or neighbours) than a man
ps22c049Men are just as well suited for a job in healthcare as women
ps22c051Women are on average a little more social than men
ps22c168I think it is important that more women start working in engineering
ps22c169Even if someone has a partner with a good income, he/she should continue working to have an income sufficient to support himself/herself and, if applicable, his/her children
ps22c025It doesn’t matter if a woman earns less than her partner, as long as they have made clear arrangements about that
ps22c026When dividing paid work between them, partners should take into account that they might split up in the future
ps22c027It’s better for a balanced relationship that both partners earn roughly the same
ps22c170It doesn’t matter if a man earns less than his partner, as long as they have made clear arrangements about that
ps22c028The number of women in high-level management positions should increase significantly over the next 5 years
ps22c029Women who work full time have just as much of a chance to reach a highlevel management position as men who work full time do
ps22c030Companies should give women priority when it comes to enrolling in management training
ps22c031It would be good if the next prime minister were a woman
ps22c033It’s good that women’s organizations advocate for more women in high-level management positions
ps22c171I think it is good that major companies are obliged to set a target figure for the ratio of men to women in high-level management positions in their company.*
ps22c035Who do you believe are better suited for high-level management positions at major companies, women or men? Or does gender not matter?
ps22c052Men must take the initiative in the sexual domain
ps22c053When a woman says “no” to a sexual advance, she means “no”
ps22c054When a man wolf-whistles to a woman in the street, it’s a compliment to her
ps22c055Boys and men often impose their will in sexual relations
ps22c056Women are too quick to see men’s behavior as sexual harassment
ps22c057It’s good that women don’t put up with unsolicited sexual comments from men
ps22c058Society has looked the other way for too long when it comes to sexual harassment that women face
ps22c059It’s impossible for men today to understand what they can and cannot do in their dealings with women
ps22c184Reporting sexually transgressive behavior is detrimental to your job
ps22c185If a woman dresses provocatively, sexually suggestive remarks are to be expected
ps22c186There is nothing wrong with a male supervisor putting his hand on a female employee’s shoulder now and then
ps22c060When a man has abused his wife, he should leave the home, not the woman
ps22c061When a woman is abused, both the man and the woman are to blame
ps22c062The police must exercise restraint in cases of domestic violence
ps22c063It’s understandable for a man to hit back after a woman starts to hit him
ps22c064People who say they have been abused by their (ex-)partner often exaggerate
ps22c065When there has been violence in a relationship, the victim should immediately end the relationship
