I earlier suggested that the absence of a social component in the  
cryonics 'package' was probably responsible for women's relative lack  
of interest in cryonics. If we predict --with a Nominal Logistics  
Fit-- Gender from the --logged-- attitude questions in Badger (1998),  
only the following items are highly significantly (p<.001) different  
when we compare men and women --who agree more with:

: I look forward to a time when we won't have to suffer the loss of  
our friends and family because of aging and disease.

: I would not want to wake up in a future time without my family or  
friends around.



Therefore, the data support my suggestion and indicate that women are  
a neglected market for cryonics.



92 outliers were trimmed from a total of 517 respondents, before  
performing the analysis above.
