I’ve been asked to post the results from the Survey for Men Regarding Women’s Councils:
Thank you to all the men who participated in the survey about the Women’s Council. We appreciate your time, perspective, and insight. Below, we’ll share the results for those who are interested. These results are not intended to end discussion or establish any definitive “truth.” They simply represent another set of data — a viewpoint that has not often been considered — which may add helpful context to the ongoing conversations among the women.
An interesting observation: In the open-ended questions, many men shared thoughtful ideas, suggestions, and concerns. Some felt the survey was biased against new movement-wide guidelines for women’s councils, while others felt it was biased in favor of them. This range of feedback suggests that the survey was likely reasonably (though not perfectly) balanced.
If you’re frustrated that this survey exists, please know that no ill will was intended toward any person or group. The purpose was simply to gather honest input and broaden understanding. There was considerable backlash to the survey, which led the creators to seriously question whether to release the results. However, it felt disingenuous to request participation and collect responses from 70+ men without sharing the findings.
No interpretations or conclusions will be offered. The results will be posted exactly as collected, for you to read and interpret yourself in the following graphics. Click any of these to enlarge them.
