Abstract

While there a wide range of motivations underlying opposition to increases in women’s political representation, Joni Lovenduski argues that they all contribute towards a much wider misunderstanding about what the data tells us about women in politics. The pervasiveness of such a state of affairs across the commentariat leads to a profoundly unhelpful framing of the wider issues.
