A study by Aaron M. McCright, sociologist at Michigan State University, suggests women are more likely than men to accept the scientific consensus of climate change.

I actually LOL when I read this article.

I can't believe we are paying for these people to teach our kids.

"Women tend to accept the scientific consensus on global warming more than men..."

Yep, no bias here. What an arse.

Generally women are not as proficient in math and science as men are.

And more persuaded by emotional arguments. That’s why a man and a woman form a pair, they balance each other out, as God intended.

Interesting theory with a backwards conclusion. Reality...women are more gullible than men when it comes to doomsday scientific scare tactics.

Since the time women were given the right to vote they have tended to vote for Leftist causes a majority of the time.

What women? As a woman who actually knows women, I do not know a single (or married) woman who believes in man made global warming.

[Abathar]

Maybe they’re more trusting in others not to lie to them also...

“Thanks... I’ll call you.”

Studies show that women and minorities tend to be conformists. They “go with the flow” and don’t spend too many brain cycles questioning what the teevee tells them.

The alleged scientific consensus is total BS and so is the propensity to do meaningful actions which actually reduce global warming, albeit by the 0.000000000000001% which man causes.

For example, I'm the one who turns down the heat in our house and Mrs. Vigilanteman is the one who turns it up. I'm willing to bet that 90% plus of normal heterosexual households are the same. Any takers?

Just one more reason why women shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

I don’t know any women either who buy this GW tripe—and believe me—I know a LOT of women......

[Abathar]

I’m one of the 90% and it drives me frigging bananas too...

[GraceG]

Duh, the whole AGW Hysteria is driven by emotion.

Pass.

BTW—I didn’t know that so many male freepers are MCPs!

[Jemian]

This woman does not.

I know, my wife's oldest friend since childhood confessed to her that she voted for Obama because "He has such dreamy eyes..."

I about puked after she said it and realized whe was serious.

Sheesh...Men more likely to want to beleive women more likely to accept global warming
