The fact that 25% of women did do it and 25% of men didn't is fascinating to me. What are your favorite explanations here?

I'm going with 25% of people of either gender are just sort of contrarians to their own gender and thus did what they think the opposite one would do. I feel like I would do that.

It's 35% of men, but close enough.

25% of all people are trans but haven't realized it yet.

That's definitely tomboy erasure. And whatever the other direction is called twink sounds kinda gay they're not necessarily gay they just like interior design.
