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

[–] Arctic_monkey@leminal.space 9 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

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

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 8 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago) (2 children)

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

[–] PieMePlenty@lemmy.world 1 points 16 minutes ago

Indeed, I walked off my incidental pregnancy.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 8 points 4 hours ago

And try harder to get pregnant!

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 21 points 7 hours ago (3 children)

Huh.

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

[–] Visstix@lemmy.world 1 points 24 minutes ago

Maybe they are just a lot worse at it.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 8 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

In the lord of the rings a lot of the extras on horses are women with fake beards because of this

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 16 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

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.

[–] luciferofastora@feddit.org 1 points 55 minutes ago

two ton

What the hell kind of breed is two tons? The heaviest ones I know get up to about one ton, but those are big, heavy working horses, not the average riding horse.

Our icelandic horse has also stood on my foot once, but she's only about 300kg (600lbs) and didn't put much of it on that foot before I shooed her off.

Also, she's super calm about damn near everything.
First encounter with a motorised shear? Eyes wide open for a few seconds, then she's already out of fucks to give.
Shenanigans trying to craft a costume for her result in a piece of cloth suddenly covering her eyes? Eh, my humans will know what they're doing. Actually, can I eat that? Nope, apparently not. Lame.

The worst she'll do when something actually does scare her is stand up straight, refuse to move closer and rarely attempt to put a little more distance. She might unexpectedly sidestep a weird object on the roadside, but not so rapidly as to dismount my wife, and she's never run away in a panic that I know of.

And if you scratch her right, she basically melts. Scratch her ears, she'll relax her lower lip like she's losing control of her face muscles. Scratch her butt, she'll lean into it. Back away, she'll follow. It's the only case I've ever seen of a horse happily walking backwards.

Horses are fucking creepy.

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 7 hours ago (3 children)

agents acting on muscles and breathing? 🤔

[–] daannii@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Drug effects. Prescription or recreational

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago) (1 children)

So more men do drugs but women OD way more?

[–] daannii@lemmy.world 8 points 3 hours ago

Well it's side effects. So a lot of people don't know this but a lot of prescription drugs only ever ran trials on white men. As you probably know. Men are typically physically larger than women and have a different muscle to fat ratio.

So it's actually more common for women to have side effects from a lot of these drugs because the dosage is not adjusted for women.

Also. Toxic masculinity. Men are told not to complain about things like this. Even though they should. Men have a shorter life span and visit doctors less, coincidence?

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

wondering why that would be a primarily "female reason" for admission, then - wouldn't drugs that impact breathing or muscles be administered or accessible to men as well?

Someone else suggested date rape drugs, that seems like a possibility - but is it typical for date rape drugged victims to end up in the hospital such that "agents acting on muscles and breathing" becomes the reason for admission? Just doesn't make sense, tbh

To be fair, white males are the default of humanity...

/s (damn humanity and their conceited blindspots!!)

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

It was just a massage I didn't mean to hurt them!

[–] CLOTHESPlN@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Allergic reaction to substances (agents) causing paralysis, asphyxiation, shock, etc

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 5 hours ago (3 children)

why would this be a "female" reason to be admitted to the hospital?

[–] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 1 points 16 minutes ago

Someone above explained it better, but women are more likely to have unwanted and even dangerous side effects from medications because most meds were only ever properly tested on white men.

[–] Test_Tickles@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

Because guys are too fucking dumb to go to the hospital for something like not being able to breathe. I'm sure the statistic couldn't breathe, tried to walk it off, regained consciousness the next morning in a ditch next to road, just went home, is probably just as full of guys as the other statistic was full of girls.

[–] psycotica0@lemmy.ca 2 points 5 hours ago

The men just rub a little dirt in their lungs

[–] AgentOrangesicle@lemmy.world 9 points 7 hours ago (4 children)

Mental note: stop brandishing scimitar while motorcycling.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 6 points 5 hours ago

The women have an unfair advantage. They get classes on the subject.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 5 points 7 hours ago

My refusal to step onto scaffolding has been affirmed by this data.

Look sometimes you've got to take some risks to follow the lead of Jaghatai Khan

[–] luciferofastora@feddit.org 1 points 49 minutes ago

Why ride in a tank and fight at a distance if you could wear a tank and ride a motorbike at breakneck speed to close into melee range? For the Khan and the Emperor!

Imagine if pregnancy stuff had 1% blue.

[–] mapiki@discuss.online 12 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

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

[–] bstix@feddit.dk 2 points 28 minutes ago

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.

[–] ikidd@lemmy.world 14 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

This is a goofy graph. We have all these admissions of 100% female due to being female. Where's the "had penis caught in chinese finger puzzle" admissions?

[–] luciferofastora@feddit.org 1 points 53 minutes ago

Probably less than 1000 cases

[–] Wahots@pawb.social 18 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

Wow, motorcycles are dangerous, damn.

[–] the_mighty_kracken@lemmy.world 11 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah. That and pregnancy. Don't even get me started on riding a motorcycle while pregnant. Might as well just ride that bike down to the morgue.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 5 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Okay but what if I turned a coffin into a motorcycle? Does the bad luck even out or am I just taunting Death?

[–] the_mighty_kracken@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

I don't know, but it would look pretty badass
