A Backlash, Rebellion or Revolution? A Survey Study on the Gender Perceptions of Generation Z Females at the Methodist Ladies' College in Australia

With the rapid development of society and the acceleration of the globalization process, the post-2000 generation of women, namely Generation Z women, are experiencing unprecedented social changes. The gender concepts of this generation are undergoing profound transformations. This study selects an all-girls high school in Australia as a typical field site and investigates on the marriage views, family concepts, future career choices, and attitudes towards current feminism of Generation Z women. This research aims to explore how Generation Z women shape and express their gender concepts when confronted with the conflict between traditional gender roles and modern feminist ideas. Through in-depth research on this specific group, this study will reveal the diversity and complexity of gender concepts in contemporary society and provide new perspectives and data support for future gender research.
