      I have said the sample is small & also that it must be remembered that it went out in a liberal/sceptical circle.

      Although it was posted on several academic sites, they mostly ignored &the sample is mostly ppl who follow me or Richard Dawkins on Twitter.

      Its preventing the figures from being misleading I'm worried abt rather than overstating wider significance. I have so many disclaimers.

      That tends to be unavoidable. No one who has any experience with that kind of work will be surprised by the disclaimers: they’re standard

      I'm also neurotic abt it after 'conceptual penis' hoax accused of claiming to undermine the whole field of gender studies single-handedly!

      These are my disclaimers so far. I expect them to grow as I anticipate more ways in which people will see it as a claim bigger than it is.pic.twitter.com/ihq6N7mYsj

      But right now I am concerned abt making it v clear the fact that more differences in values which relate to liberal values have been cited

      does not indicate that more of my respondents hold those values. It just indicates that the ones who do mentioned more differences.

      There's a whole cluster of values around individuality, meritocracy, moderation that women say they can't express safely.

          On a pie chart, these overwhelm the other big issue -gender scepticism - but it doesn't indicate that many more *respondents* hold former

          Its that the radfems just have the one issue whilst the others are all being made by the same people who form a group not much bigger.

          So, I think I just need to be very clear that 'points of contention' not *people* are represented by the figures & the ppl can hold a mix.

          Maybe also have a pie chart for the rad fems and another for the liberal/sceptical group.

          I did consider this but the problem is that the 'broadly liberal' group don't tend to identify their political positions.

          Someone saying they favour equal opportunities could be left-liberal, centrist, conservative. It'd get even more subjective.

          I could look at their views & say 'left-leaning liberal' but they could consider themselves a right-wing libertarian.

          I think it's even more helpful to be very clear about what it DOES say. And when That's clear, think of ways this could be misinterpreted.
