1 in 20(ish) people , I think? Statistics are not my friend, but clearly they aren’t Sefton Council’s either

The BBC article says 1 in 10 women, so I’d assume the Sefton social media person, being perhaps not the sharpest tool in the shed, thought that they could substitute ‘women’ for ‘people’ and have it mean the same thing.

From the link they’ve tweeted it’s actually 1 in 10 women. They’ve just taken it upon themselves to erase women and replace it with people which makes the statistic wholly incorrect.

1 in 10 people would mean 1 in 5 women, since the number of men suffering from endometriosis is zero.

Actually, those mangled tweets erased men from the class 'human'.

I completely understood their statement as saying "We're not proud supporters of women in our community" @seftoncouncil ?
