@amandabaumle.bsky.socialI reanalyzed the CDC data behind the LGB “free fall” headline. It rests on a change in bisexual identification among one grade, in one wave, of one survey.

Show PostIs America in a demographic crisis? Demographers don’t think so. I conducted a survey of U.S. demographers, and this is what I found: 3%: “The low birth rate is a demographic crisis” 25%: "serious concern” 53%: "should be monitored, but no intervention necessary” 20% :“not a problem at all.”
Show PostRen Farley, a giant among sociologists and Detroit scholars. As a student I got to take his legendary Detroit class.
