@PhiggyPhig@KajensAngel@aniobrien TOP"s derisive attitude to defining men and women in law (mocking NZ first for caring about "what's in people's pants") is a massive red flag. 🚩
New study in @PNASNexus: While most countries became more gender egalitarian 1995-2022, global support for gender equality stagnated
Why? Higher fertility in less egalitarian populations compounded this.
This reveals a critical paradox in cultural change.

@Mick_O_Keeffe According to the 2021 UK Census, about 8–9% of the UK population was born overseas. Not 4.3%. The 2025 figure of 20% is right, but this sort of error makes me doubt the post in general.
@JoyJuaneza@HMDatMI I really didn't make your point. At least not the one you typed, which supposes that anyone who performs X is being male, as though women don't do that (see above, about differences in group averages). If you meant the opposite of what you said (sarcasm), how would I know?
@JoyJuaneza@HMDatMI 2/2 It is not a description of every individual in those two groups, meaning that every male has these tendencies and every female lacks them.
So if she, the speaker, has those tendencies, that doesn't contradict what she is saying.
I hope I explained my point clearly enough.
@JoyJuaneza@HMDatMI 1/2 I thought it was clear, but OK. When she says that the difference between men and women in these outcomes is caused by the fact that "males on average" have these different tendencies, that only describes the difference between the averages of groups (male and female).
On Lynda Topp's anti-goverment speech: it is privileged and out-of-touch for an artist to complain that the govt is not giving artists taxpayers' money to do what they love. The rest of us have to find something other people want to pay for and do that to make a living.
@paulogia0 That's not the case in regard to "the dominant view" of New Testament scholars, ie the whole field without excluding any because of bias.

@sillymilly6287@tmurphyNZ How is anyone still either dumb enough or dishonest enough to repeat the falsehood that the government gave money to landlords? Like, provably false with zero evidence, but zombies keep saying it.
