"78% are women or children" and 58% are children. If you make the journey safe, families can flee. Unsafe=more men.https://twitter.com/melissarfleming/status/763790117958025216 …
zeynep tufekci added,
wait, doesn't that mean 20% are women, 22% men? so... most of them are MEN and children? weird stats tbh
They report girls as women I believe; it makes for confusing percentages.
