 <<The statistic that shows more women visited Gettysburg than men 
is being interpreted by this author as perhaps a flaw in the survey 
process or to raise questions about an unexpected result, rather than 
a sexist remark. It is what has to be done with the data for it to be of value.>>

Dennis:  I agree with  your post.  But I would venture to say that perhaps the wording in the article was ill chosen; and could have been explained without presenting to some, such as myself, as sexist.  From one who has experienced sexism in tours, it is still there (though I will admit much less these days).
