gender poll
« on: October 13, 2022, 04:53:56 PM »
the question is too long for the poll, so i'm posting the remainder of the question here.

Quote
... in women’s sports that are complicated and not settled.”



i saw a tweet with poll results from this question and i thought it'd be interesting to see if goEMAW diverges from those results or not.

assuming i don't forget, i'll post the tweet with the results after the poll closes (in two days).

i'll note that it's not well-written for use as a polling question because it is a compound statement and respondents can agree with parts of it, but not all of it.  even worse, it's possible to disagree from either the right or the left.

One dong here, this looks like a classic horseshoe poll.  Lefties and Righties will vote no for different reasons.

is there a gender thread other than the sports one and this one? I mean if this is a "two sides" issue, one side is clearly evil and wrong

There was, but I think all discussion transitioned over to the sports thread. https://goEMAW.com/forum/index.php?topic=37625.0

Shouldn't there be a thread titled PUBS ARE STUPID AS eff.  If not, there needs to be one.

Because I don't like being forced to choose between two options, neither of which fit?

if you don't agree, that means you disagree.  imo.

a wisconsin pollster decided to poll some statements that a dem centrist pundit put out a while back as messaging that would be acceptable to most from both parties.  goEMAW came in pretty much on the dot with wisconsin dems on this issue (results from other issues in thread if interested).

I missed this and probably would have voted agree if this weren't included
"child consent to transitioning"

i had thought that goEMAW trended more transpositive than dems in general (as represented by wisconsin dems) and thought that we would have scored lower in agreement with the statement, but my hypothesis was not supported by our poll results.
