The European questionnaire on Information and Communication Technologies Data reveals that there exists a disparity between the internet usage of people according to gender. This disparity although present in most countries, differs widely in its severity.
By 2019, 29 percent of male as well as 29 percent of female internet users in the European Union (EU-27) used the internet to upload self-created content. The Netherland and Denmark were among the countries with the highest rates of men and women that shared self-created content with 55 and 57 percent doing so. Finland and Belgium however were among the countries in which men and women were less likely to share their own content online.
