This study seems pretty flawed. If you look at what they're counting as traumatic experiences they are mostly experiences that every cyclist experiences because motorists fucking hate cyclists and will get angry and be aggressive for no reason.

Like obviously women and enbies shouldn't experience these things from motorists but nobody should. If you want the study to be useful in understanding why the gender divide of cyclists in Portland is 7/10 male, there should at the very least be a control group, or they should be focusing on the types of harassment that are specific to women and enbies, like catcalling. If they care about the offences that happen to all cyclists then maybe pass some meaningful laws against intimidating cyclists and actually enforce them.
