chosen: Chauvinism towards women has been on the rise for the past several years, with research showing that a large number of men today hold more traditional views regarding the roles of men and women in society. This increase in gender-binary thinking has many different causes, from social and cultural factors to economic ones. 
  
  The increased use of the internet and social media, for example, has made it easier for men to access and be exposed to misogynist rhetoric. These platforms allow men from across the world to connect, share information, and exchange beliefs and values, resulting in the spread of a conservative male-dominated culture with toxic attitudes towards women. 
  
  Additionally, some men may seek to protect their power in relation to women, fearful of a shift in roles that could put them at a disadvantage. In this way, chauvinistic attitudes can also be viewed as a defensive response to a larger shift in gender dynamics. 
  
  Furthermore, societal expectations of masculinity can leave some men feeling anxious about deviating from certain expectations. As a result, these men may act to shore up their macho image by putting down women in order to prove their ‘manliness’. 
  
  Finally, many of these attitudes may be driven by economic circumstances. In certain contexts, men may believe that maintaining traditional gender roles is necessary for success. This could result in a sense of feeling 'disadvantaged' by women, leading to a reinforcing of existing gender inequality.  In conclusion, the factors contributing to men’s chauvinist views of women are complex and multi-faceted; they often rely on social and economic constructs, as well as cultural values and beliefs.
