The Paris 2024 Olympic Games were scheduled to be the first time a modern Summer Olympics will have an equal share of male and female athletes competing. The first modern Olympic Games in Athens in 1896 were exclusively for male competitors, and although some female events were introduced in Paris in 1900, the share of events was just 2.2 percent. Over the next century, the ratio of female to male events has gradually narrowed, and at a faster rate in recent decades, reaching almost 49 percent in Tokyo 2020. Not only has the overall volume of female athletes increased, the last decade has seen the introduction of several mixed events; these included mixed shooting events and both sprinting and swimming mixed relays.

Period of data collection: 27 April – 20 May 2022

Geographic region of data collection: Online survey in USA with participants from 29 countries in IWF regions Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania, PanAmerican

METHODOLOGICAL INFORMATION

Description of methods used for collection/generation of data: The survey was distributed by the Master Committee of the International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) to the National Master Chairs. They then used email or social media to communicate the study to the women weightlifters. The Survey was available in four languages (English, German, French, Spanish), translated and tested by native speakers. In addition, the survey was advertised in weightlifting interest groups via Facebook and Instagram. The survey was administered online via Qualtrics (Provo, UT, USA).

Methods for processing the data: Data were downloaded from Qualtrics (Provo, UT, USA) to Excel and then pre-processed in the statistical software R v. 4.0.3. (https://www.r-project.org)

Variable formats (numeric, character) were checked and transformed, as appropriate.

Data quality checks: Exclusion criteria were younger than 30 years (n=1), missing age (n=1), currently pregnant (n=3). To account for the possibility of male participants missing responses to age of menstruation or prior pregnancies (n=15), were also excluded. Since the focus was on competitive weightlifters, missing response to age of first competition (n=34) or no snatch or clean and jerk in the last 6 months (n=14) were also exclusion criteria. This resulted in an analysis data set of 824 women. Univariate distributions were evaluated numerically and graphically.

As of January 2025, users aged 25 to 34 years made up Facebook's largest audience in the United States, accounting for 24.2 percent of the social network's user base, with 12.3 percent of those users being women. Overall, 9.7 percent of users aged 35 to 44 years were women, and 9.3 percent were men. How many people use Facebook in the United States? Facebook is by far the most used social network in the world and finds a huge share of its audience in the United States. Facebook’s U.S. audience size comes second only to India. In 2023, there were over 246 million Facebook users in the U.S. By 2028, it is estimated that around 263 million people in the U.S. will be signed up for the platform. How do users in the United States view the platform? Although Facebook is widely used and very popular with U.S. consumers, there are issues of trust with its North American audience. As of November 2021, 72 percent of respondents reported that they did not trust Facebook with their personal data. Despite having privacy doubts, a May 2022 survey found that 20 percent of adults had a very favorable opinion of Facebook, and one-third held a somewhat positive view of the platform.

In an impressive increase from years past, 39 percent of women in the United States had completed four years or more of college in 2022. This figure is up from 3.8 percent of women in 1940. A significant increase can also be seen in males, with 36.2 percent of the U.S. male population having completed four years or more of college in 2022, up from 5.5 percent in 1940.

4- and 2-year colleges

In the United States, college students are able to choose between attending a 2-year postsecondary program and a 4-year postsecondary program. Generally, attending a 2-year program results in an Associate’s Degree, and 4-year programs result in a Bachelor’s Degree.

Many 2-year programs are designed so that attendees can transfer to a college or university offering a 4-year program upon completing their Associate’s. Completion of a 4-year program is the generally accepted standard for entry-level positions when looking for a job.

Earnings after college

Factors such as gender, degree achieved, and the level of postsecondary education can have an impact on employment and earnings later in life. Some Bachelor’s degrees continue to attract more male students than female, particularly in STEM fields, while liberal arts degrees such as education, languages and literatures, and communication tend to see higher female attendance.

All of these factors have an impact on earnings after college, and despite nearly the same rate of attendance within the American population between males and females, men with a Bachelor’s Degree continue to have higher weekly earnings on average than their female counterparts.

In the United States in 2021, the death rate was highest among those aged 85 and over, with about 17,190.5 men and 14,914.5 women per 100,000 of the population passing away. For all ages, the death rate was at 1,118.2 per 100,000 of the population for males, and 970.8 per 100,000 of the population for women. The death rate Death rates generally are counted as the number of deaths per 1,000 or 100,000 of the population and include both deaths of natural and unnatural causes. The death rate in the United States had pretty much held steady since 1990 until it started to increase over the last decade, with the highest death rates recorded in recent years. While the birth rate in the United States has been decreasing, it is still currently higher than the death rate. Causes of death There are a myriad number of causes of death in the United States, but the most recent data shows the top three leading causes of death to be heart disease, cancers, and accidents. Heart disease was also the leading cause of death worldwide.

In 2023 the poverty rate in the United States was highest among people between 18 and 24, with a rate of 16 percent for male Americans and a rate of 21 percent for female Americans. The lowest poverty rate for both men and women was for those aged between 45 and 54. What is the poverty line? The poverty line is a metric used by the U.S. Census Bureau to define poverty in the United States. It is a specific income level that is considered to be the bare minimum a person or family needs to meet their basic needs. If a family’s annual pre-tax income is below this income level, then they are considered impoverished. The poverty guideline for a family of four in 2021 was 26,500 U.S. dollars. Living below the poverty line According to the most recent data, almost one-fifth of African Americans in the United States live below the poverty line; the most out of any ethnic group. Additionally, over 7.42 million families in the U.S. live in poverty – a figure that has held mostly steady since 1990, outside the 2008 financial crisis which threw 9.52 million families into poverty by 2012. The poverty gender gap Wage inequality has been an ongoing discussion in U.S. discourse for many years now. The poverty gap for women is most pronounced during their child-bearing years, shrinks, and then grows again in old age. While progress has been made on the gender pay gap over the last 30 years, there are still significant disparities, even in occupations that predominantly employ men. Additionally, women are often having to spend more time attending to child and household duties than men.

The data is categorized under Global Database’s USA – Table US.World Bank: Health Statistics. Unmet need for contraception is the percentage of fertile, married women of reproductive age who do not want to become pregnant and are not using contraception.; ; Household surveys, including Demographic and Health Surveys and Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys. Largely compiled by United Nations Population Division.; Weighted Average; Unmet need for contraception measures the capacity women have in achieving their desired family size and birth spacing. Many couples in developing countries want to limit or postpone childbearing but are not using effective contraception. These couples have an unmet need for contraception. Common reasons are lack of knowledge about contraceptive methods and concerns about possible side effects.
