Suzanne Steinmetz and her family received verbal threats (both in public and at home), threatening phone calls, and bomb threats because she was one of the first researchers to bring up “battered husbands.” Women’s rights activists lobbied to block her from receiving tenure.

When CTS methodology was used in studies examining wife abuse, the women’s movement had no problem with it. When the same methodology was applied to the Family Violence Research study, the method of measuring violence was attacked.

Rates of unanesthetized circumcisions by practitioner type: Pediatrician (29%), Family practitioner (44%), Obstetrician (75%)

Circumcision has no statistically significant protective effect in the prevention of HIV transmission

The American Academy of Pediatrics does not recommend routine neonatal circumcision

“Parental preference alone is not sufficient justification for performing a surgical procedure [circumcision] on a child.”

“The frequency of diseases modifiable by circumcision, the level of protection offered by circumcision and the complication rates of circumcision do not warrant routine infant circumcision.”

“Circumcision of newborns should not be routinely performed.”

“There is no convincing evidence that circumcision is useful or necessary in terms of prevention or hygiene… circumcision entails the risk of medical and psychological complications… Non-therapeutic circumcision of male minors conflicts with the child’s right to autonomy and physical integrity.”

Fear of sexual violence affects both women and men (1-5% variance vs. 1-2% variance)

In examining who is afraid of crime and why, virtually every study has come up with the conclusion that women and the elderly fear crime the most, and this fear is not justified by their victimization rate.

STEM majors have been at 50% female for more than a decade

Men and women have equivalent access to tenure-track academic jobs in science and math, they persist and are remunerated at comparable rates, and fare at least as well as their male counterparts in employment offers

Female AP students outnumber male AP students (55% vs. 45%)

Womens’ comparative advantage between reading/English vs. math/science explains 85% of the STEM gap

Of high school senior girls and boys who intend a science/enghineering major in the future, fewer females actually pursued a science/engineering major than males (16.0% vs. 28.5%)

Although far more men than women (28.1% vs. 16.0%) entered college intending to major in science and engineering more men dropped a science major during college, so that by the end, the ratio of male to female majors in this particular college had fallen from 1.76:1 to the insignificantly different 1.08:1

Females attach greater importance to getting high grades than do males and are therefore more likely to drop courses in which their grades may be lower – the so-called “fear of B-.”

In the most common demographic group – unmarried without children – females were 16% more likely to get tenure-track jobs than were males.

In tenure position hiring in 19 STEM fields, 2.03% of male applicants were hired compared with 4.28% of females

The female superiority in tenure track hiring outcomes is not due to objectively higher female quality. These experimental findings are compatible with the hiring data showing gender neutrality or even a female preference in actual hiring.
