re: the NYT graph about millennial men:

TL;DR: the NYT graph uses a really small sample size, doesn't include 2016 data.

Quote:
The GSS surveys are pretty small – about 2,000-3,000 per wave – so once you split by sample, and then split by age, and then exclude the older millennials (age 26-34) who don’t show any negative trend in gender equality, you’re left with cells of about 60-100 men ages 18-25 per wave. Standard errors on any given year are 6-8 percent.
