On the one hand, all the pregnancy-related items are of course very important -- but they're not particularly illuminating on a list like this. If there was a "Testicular Torsion" item marked as 100% male, that wouldn't really tell me much here either.

    Part of my job is fitting people with custom bracing in the trauma ward. I realized this wasn't the US because there were so many cyclists, and it was lacking an atv category.

    In my state the trauma ward has an ATV season. Also, I'm surprised there wasn't a subcategory for pool injuries, or at least a category for slip and falls. Are swimming pools not very popular in the UK?

    Looks like women are too busy with all that sex stuff to get out on their motorbikes.

    We've got to improve those male pregnancy exam numbers, women are winning!

    Huh.

    Horse girls are a bigger part of the horse riding population than I thought

    My girlfriend's sister has a horse and I refuse to go near it. It's a two ton object being operated by a pea of a brain, he once got into a panic because his friend was behind him and he couldn't see him, so he ran around the field madly until he collided with a stationary tree. Oh and he's scared of blue wheelbarrows, just blue ones, wheelbarrows of any other colour or apparently acceptable.

    He has already stood on her foot once.

    This is embarrassing to men. You're suppose to walk off those sorts of injuries.

    This information will surely only be used to inform rational and socially progressive ideas about gender

    What on earth are these "Agents acting on muscles or breathing" that women seem to be much more prone to?

    Meh the data is presented in a not only useless but misleading way.

    My interpretation was drugs which are CNS depressants or paralytics. A benzo overdose presumably falls into this category, maybe also opioids. It can't include alcohol though, because people drinking until paralytic is not an overwhelmingly female phenomenon (I believe it is currently pretty even)

    I feel like what's missing is the magnitude of each of these versus the others

    Yes. It's shown on the right, and ought to have bee sorted by that.

    Also, notice the bottom text, that it excludes all cases where neither gender is more than 80%, so only extreme differences are shown.

    It's carefully chosen to show some point, which might be interesting in some context, but not really interesting by itself without context.

    Because men cannot give birth, they engage in other types of high-risk activities, such as riding a motorcycle.

    Seriously though, what's a procreative management?

    I thought there’d be more “remove foreign object from up bum”.

    Mental note: stop brandishing scimitar while motorcycling.
