and watching TV has the highest rate of participation across the board.
Regarding watching TV, spending time with family, doing exercise, and reading, both men and women are interested in those activities.

Just slightly below 75% is doing sport and reading, with the participation of males being a little bit higher than females.

In contrast to this tendency, nearly 75% of men spend their break time surfing the internet; this figure for women just accounts for 30% to 40%. Ultimately, playing computer games breaks all the trends, with nearly 20% of men compared to 13% of women.
