Gender Gap

Air Safety Week, Nov 15, 1999

According to an ABC News poll taken Nov. 3-7 among a random sample of 1,000 adults, public confidence in air safety remains high. But men are more comfortable about flying than women:

            Unafraid of flying       Afraid of flying
Men         70%                      6%
Women       43%                      21%

These percentages do not add to 100 because a third category, "bothered" by flying, is not shown. For more, see the ABC News website: http://www.abcnews.go.com/sections/politics/DailyNews/poll991108.html
