Facts don’t care about your feelings bro

• 91% of SA victims are women, 99% of perpetrators are men;
• women in the EU work 70 hours per week on average vs men who work 63 hour per week (this includes paid and unpaid work, women do about 3 times as much unpaid work as men)
• number of women in the US who face workplace discrimination is 3 times higher than men
• women politicians in the US face 3.4 times as much threats and harassment than men
• car seats are only tested on male dummies resulting in women being 73% more likely to get seriously injured by a car crash
• most medicines are only tested on male animals and or humans, resulting in lower efficacy among women and causing medicines that would be beneficial to women to go undiscovered

Once again I recommend reading the book invisible women for more interesting statistics, and an analysis on gender specific data. It turns out that gender specific data is very hard to come by, making a lot of potential other gender gaps undiscovered. Women are much more likely than men to be victims of gender specific data gaps because women were not allowed to work for a long time and women still make up only a small fraction of executives making many women specific problems to stay undiscovered.
