Hmmm,statistics- a very fashionable way of trying to push through once own POV

😉 😛

haa, but statistics is like that glass which can be seen half empty/ half full. one does need other reasoning to back up one's statistics. 😛lol. (contrary to the belief that we use statistics to back up other things, it's the other way around)😉😆

Maya, I am on fence on this one.

So now you are saying, statistics is not all,reasoning is needed to back up the statistics... 😆Don't statistics actually blind the reasoning,like in this case, according to you 😉

one just needs good reasoning to go along with the stats. or at least interpret the stats cleverly coz there almost always are different ways to interpret the same stats😉

Exactly my point- statistics are almost always interpreted according to once own convinience.. 😉So lets put the statistics aside...

A little side note here: Shall we make another post on Statistics and Reasoning... 😆 😆 😆

but in this case, u've not been able to refute the stats or offer a better interpretation for what we find so commonplace- that there are so many areas where women fall short in terms of competence/ ability (heavy construction/ military strike unit, wimbledon). and some where the men do (laying babies).😉 Or are we asking for gender equalities in all these respects too?😛
