Residents in Northern and Western European countries hold a contrasting view compared to their Eastern counterparts. In Sweden, only 11% of residents, 13% in Denmark, and 16% in the Netherlands believe that men's main role is to earn money.

On the other hand, Eastern European countries lean towards a more traditional perspective, with over 70% of Bulgarians, Slovaks, and Hungarians considering earning money as the primary role for men. Additionally, over half of the respondents in neighboring countries share this belief.
