People informing themselves about goods online in Belgium 2010-2020, by gender
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, 79 percent of male internet users in Belgium used the internet to inform themselves about goods and services. Among women this share was slightly lower and amounted to 76 percent. Since 2010, 13 percent more men and 18 percent more women replied that they searched the internet for information about goods and services.
