Disputing a scientific study with anecdotal evidence, eh? It said 'disproportionately' not 'overwhelmingly'. Top 20 isn't anywhere near 1%

Its just a closer look at the most popular people of all. I can't get motivated to care much about this.

"Maybe I'm being unfair, maybe the next will show all white males" - but the study said 57% men to 43% women

Is that a claim that 20 is 1% of 500 million. It was interesting, Dan. I can't be bothered to argue about it. It is what it is.

You're right Helen, this conversation is unproductive. I have to say I'm disappointed, though.
-
With what? You seem to be responding to claims not made.
-
Then I said, that's not significant to 1% as in the study. The you suggest I claim he thinks 20 is 1%. Just demonstrating insignificance.
-
I don't think top twenty disprove the study's stats. They just complicate simplistic claims of glass ceiling & most popular being white men
