adjl 06/27/20 1:45:50 PM #5:	Honestly, all that really needs to happen is for Trump to admit his previous show of machoistic bravado ("The CDC is now recommending that everyone wear a mask, but I'm not going to wear one") was a mistake and to start wearing on at every public appearance. A sizable chunk of the insecure manlings in the country are basically just following him blindly, so if wearing a mask is manly enough for Trump, it'll be manly enough for them. Granted, getting Trump to not only admit to making a mistake, but also voluntarily do something that he feels would damage his image would probably be harder than just about any other solution, so I guess we're stuck looking elsewhere. --- This is my signature.

Also the % difference between men and women refusing to wear masks is close to the gender gap in Republican vs. Democrat voting percentages. Are you referring to the 51-48 split the NY Post article mentions? Because that's just the demographic breakdown of the sample population, not the results. That said, reading the actual article, my last stats class happened too long ago for me to readily figure out what the exact numbers are, since they're using regressions in some capacity and not just giving nice, simple percentages. The bar graphs and numbers used certainly make it look like there are significant differences, but I can't quantify just how significant. streamofthesky posted... So it seems to me more likely that it's just a reflection of Trumpers' refusing to wear them because dear leader said so, regardless of gender (there just happen to be more men who are Trump supporters) The sample population used was predominantly left-leaning (50% left, 21% centre, 29% right), so I don't think that explains it. --- This is my signature.

EDIT: Also the % difference between men and women refusing to wear masks is close to the gender gap in Republican vs. Democrat voting percentages. So it seems to me more likely that it's just a reflection of Trumpers' refusing to wear them because dear leader said so, regardless of gender (there just happen to be more men who are Trump supporters) If that were true, then in the full regression model (which includes both sex and political leaning), political leaning should be the only significant variable. Instead, we see both sex and political leaning are highly significant. It would be interesting to have modeled the interaction between the two, but it's not necessary to conclude that both sex and political leaning were at work here. --- Take me for what I am -- who I was meant to be.
