Pew Poll Finds People Still See Differences Between Genders


The mainstream media and the liberal academia are certainly blurring the differences between men and women; but most Americans aren’t buying it, according to a recent Pew poll.

The Pew Research Center released a little referenced report on July 24th showing that adults still use traditional words to describe the two genders.  “Protective,” “provider,” “father,” and “honorable” were the positive words used most often to describe men; while “multitasking,” “brain,” “beautiful,” and “maternal” were the positive words used most often to describe women.  “People said traits related to strength and ambition are especially valued for men in society and that compassion, kindness and responsibility are particularly valued for women,” Pew added.

The report was based on data Pew released in 2017 that also found that most adults see key differences between the genders:
  • 84% of men and 89% of women said the genders express their feelings differently.
  • 69% of men and 67% of women said the genders are basically different in their hobbies and personal interests.
  • 76% of men and 75% of women said the genders are different in their physical abilities.
The reports were based on surveys of 4,573 people conducted Aug. 8-21 and Sept. 14-28 of 2017.

You’d never know this if the progressive media and schools of higher learning were your only source of data on the matter.  The truth is, this reputable polling organization has the greater finger on the pulse of the American people’s sentiments.
