Every 8 out of 10 Russians considered it normal for a woman to earn more money than her husband, according to a survey from September 2020. Compared to July 2013, the share of respondents who held that opinion increased by 23 percent.
Which opinion is closer to yours: that it is not good/not normal when the wife is earning more than the husband, or that there is nothing bad about that?
The original question was worded by the source as follows: "Бывает, что жена зарабатывает больше мужа. Одни считают, что это нехорошо, ненормально. Другие считают, что ничего плохого в этом нет, это нормально. Какое мнение вам ближе?"
The survey characteristics refer to the latest survey conducted in 104 municipalities in 53 federal subjects of Russia. The previous surveys were conducted face-to-face and included 1,500 respondents.
