Doesn't matter. If you take those numbers, let's say 4 out of 10 men are against abortion, so you put them in a pile.
Then you take 3 out of 10 women against abortion and you put them in the same pile.
So now you have a pile with 4 men and 3 women who are against abortion. Which would mean 4/7 people who are against abortion are men. Which is 57%. Not 79% at all.
Either way. What's the source. Should always source your statistics.
82% of statistics are made up on the spot. Everyone knows that.
69% of the time, it works every time
