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 2020, 87 percent of male internet users in Germany used the internet to inform themselves about goods and services. Among women this share was slightly lower and amounted to 85 percent. Since 2013, 15 percent more men and 24 percent more women replied that they searched the internet for information about goods and services.
