I wonder why obstetrical and gynecologic devices 98.3% female and not 100%... I assume it must be biological gender since it's NHS data.

Possibly for breast cancer? Men can get breast cancer, it's just not as common

Ok, so what I am hearing is that I can significantly reduce the risk of motorcycle injuries by not being a man? Like how far do I need to go here, because if its just dressing in drag, it may be just the supporting data I will need to convince my wife to let me have a motorcycle "just one more time"

Fellas! Stay off the bicycles and motorcycles!

No. May my organs be of good use to someone more intelligent and useful.

The amount of lawnmower injuries...

It reminded me of 1000 Ways To Die

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

The line item for obstetric and gynecological devices is interesting.

Shoot from the hip with no explanation....

Not seeing anything inherently wrong with the data viz (obviously not talking about the veracity of the data itself or its geographic/linguistic scope as that's another matter).

Would you elaborate what you mean?

[-] WraithGear@lemmy.world 11 points 6 hours ago

if you are going to bring up comparisons based on sex, you pollute the data including things that ONLY can possibly effect one sex. what good is it to compare how much post pregnancy care effects women vs men? or to have half the comparisons divvy all the different ways you can classify a motor cycle accident, where there is the same outcome for all of them.

[-] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 hours ago

I assume it is based on data of people being admitted to hospitals, as titled. So my guess is this is more about how the medical system breaks the data down, and they selected for the highest disparities of reported sex.

[-] WraithGear@lemmy.world 5 points 4 hours ago

seems to point to men getting hurt based on high risk behavior or professional expectation. but women seem to be arriving for biological functions.

though honestly if you consider child birth both a high risk behavior and and societal expectation then the comparison is valid, but more clarity on the why it’s like this would help.

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

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 21 points 9 hours ago

At least the horsegirl population vastly outnumbers the horseboys...

[-] Aqarius@lemmy.world 9 points 9 hours ago

What is a hog but a horse with more horsepower?

[-] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 9 points 12 hours ago

The men who aren't getting involved in motorcycle accidents are getting them pregnant. It's just natural selection.

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