analyzing the latest results re: the phandom's attraction to sister daniel

so while the goal of the new poll after tit was uploaded to youtube was a larger sample size, it was in fact smaller (462 responses vs 1,250 responses in the original poll), but i guess potentially included different people or different answers from people after they'd seen tit vs just seeing pictures. so, because it's fun and i'm procrastinating, still going to analyze! (analysis of the last round of polling here)

buckle in, this is a long one.

(or just scroll down for numbers, there's some yapping and clarification first. and scroll further down for the tldr summary of said numbers and conclusions.)

so: 462 total responses, and again, because tumblr polling results only go to one decimal place, doing the math might lead to fractions of a person, which i will just round to the nearest whole number because, well, you're all whole people. which might lead to some numbers that don't quite add up, but get over it i guess, this is tumblr and not a scientific research paper and i am not a statistician or whatever.

the answer choices this time had more nuance re: sexual/romantic orientation of the respondent (did not differentiate between these, but will use "monosexual" to describe the total group who described themselves as "typically attracted to" only one gender, for clarification; i realize some of y'all may be asexual and talking about romantic or other attraction, but i'm not sure how else to clarify that total grouping here, sorry), and the question changed from asking respondents whether they're "sexually attracted" to sister daniel, to just "attracted," allowing respondents to interpret that in whatever way felt most true for them, as some notes on the original post indicated uncertainty because of that specific wording (shoutout to @phannie-by-night and a couple other people i think but don't remember who sry, for suggesting that on the original poll).

i would have also liked to ask respondents about their gender identity, but this was the maximum number of answer choices allowed on a tumblr poll. i'm fully aware that nonbinary phannies are here and might be included in any of the monosexual categories ("typically attracted to men & id as queer/gay/etc.," "typically attracted to women & id as queer/lesbian/etc.," "typically attracted to men & id as straight," or "typically attracted to women & id as straight"), and will try to keep my language inclusive here - i liked the phrasing that @bewareofthenewphannie used in the tags and will probably use that: "my main takeaway from this poll is that there is exactly one straight (possibly) man in the phandom" (thanks for giving me a way to word this, the final results now show 2 of them though, spoiler!)

while i did include "queer etc" in the monosexual identity categories and recognize some respondents there might not vibe with the labels "gay" and "lesbian," i don't want to confuse those response categories with the "attracted to multiple genders" categories in the analysis, so just for clarity here will sometimes use "gay" and "lesbian" when discussing these groups.

now on to the numbers!

(and once again, i am using an iphone calculator and am not a statistician, if you spot any mistakes here let me know)

out of the 462 total responses, 76.5% said yes, they are attracted to sister daniel! this is quite a bit higher than the 60.3% of "yes" responses last time, which could be attributed both to the change in the wording of the question, and to more people seeing sister daniel in action, or potentially the smaller sample size could indicate that only the more intense phannies saw/answered this round, no real way to know but fun to theorize.

in the category of people who are "typically attracted to men & id as queer/gay/etc.," which in total comprised 13.6% of respondents (approx. 63 people), 57 people said yes, and 6 people said no. so for the gay (possibly) men in the phandom, 90.5% of you ARE attracted to sister daniel! big numbers there folks, let's see if anyone else can beat that!

for phannies who are "typically attracted to men & id as straight," which in total comprised 4.4% of respondents or roughly 20 people, 16 responded "yes" and 4 responded "no," meaning from this sample, 80% of straight (possibly) women ARE attracted to sister daniel. also very high, but not quite as many as the gay (possibly) men!

combining both of the above categories (for comparison to the original poll), of the respondents who are "typically attracted to men," there were 83 of you (17.9% of respondents this time, 14.5% last time), and 73 responded yes, so that's 88% of phannies "typically attracted to men" who ARE attracted to sister daniel. in the original round of polling, that number was 64.1%.

now on to members of the phandom "typically attracted to women," starting with "typically attracted to women & id as queer/lesbian/etc.," which was a total of 29.9% of responses, or 138 people. of those, 101 people said yes, and 37 said no, meaning that in this poll, 73.1% of lesbian (possibly) women ARE attracted to sister daniel!

of those who are "typically attracted to women & id as straight," comprising just 0.4% of respondents, or 2 people, there was one yes and one no. so i guess there are TWO straight (possibly) men in the phandom (and i wonder if y'all know each other?), and they're 50-50 on attraction to sister daniel! while this is obviously a very tiny sample size, it does still tell us that it's possible for straight (possibly) men to be attracted to her, so still interesting!

combining both of the above categories, 140 respondents (30.3%) are "typically attracted to women," as compared to 25.5% last time, and of those, 72.9% ARE attracted to sister daniel (compared to 58.9% yeses in the first round).

in the four monosexual categories, meaning those who said they're typically attracted to just men OR women, who were 48.3% of total responses (as compared to 40% last time), or 223 people, we had 175 "yes" votes, meaning 78.5% ARE attracted to sister daniel, compared to 60.8% in round 1.

now onto the biggest group of the phandom: phannies "typically attracted to people of multiple/other gender(s)." lots of bi/pan/etc phannies out there! this was a total of 40.5% of respondents (41.7% in the first round, so not much difference here), or 187 people. of those 187, there were 162 yeses and 25 nos, meaning 86.6% of bi/pan/etc phannies ARE attracted to sister daniel! (80.1% in round one).

so just to compare, 78.5% of respondents in the combined monosexual id categories are attracted to sister daniel, and 86.6% of the bi/pan/etc folks are attracted to her, which is a much smaller difference than in round one, when only 60.8% in the categories typically attracted to one gender said yes versus 80.1% typically attracted to mulitple genders.

for those of you "typically attracted to nobody," sister daniel still had some people feeling things! this category comprised 11.3% of total responses, or 52 people (12.4% of responses in round one). despite typically not experiencing whatever sort of attraction you based your answers on (not explicitly sexual attraction in this round), there were 16 yeses and 36 nos. as expected, this is the only category where a majority of respondents ARE NOT attracted to sister daniel, but 30.8% of respondents "typically attracted to nobody" ARE attracted to sister daniel regardless. this number was 21.1% in round one, and i strongly suspect the increase is due to the change in the wording of the question.

now, because i can since this round of polling had more nuanced answer choices, i'm going to compare straight vs queer phannies who typically experience some sort of attraction, and their attraction to sister daniel. this means anyone typically attracted to either men or women who ids as straight, vs a combination of the monosexual queer categories and the bi/pan/etc. folks - not a big sample size for the straight phannies, but still curious to see the difference!

combining both of the "id as straight" categories, a total of 22 people, or 4.8% of total respondents (i <3 you straight phannies, you are true allies), 77.3% ARE attracted to sister daniel.

combining the gay (possibly) men, lesbian (possibly) women, and bi/pan/etc. folks, a total of 388 people or 84% of total responses, it appears that 92% of those who are some flavor of queer & experience some sort of attraction ARE attracted to sister daniel!

TLDR:

breaking down the answers of those in the same id categories:

of the 13.6% of respondents who are "typically attracted to men & id as queer/gay/etc.," the gay (possibly) men in the phandom, 90.5% ARE attracted to sister daniel.

of the 4.4% of respondents who are "typically attracted to men & id as straight," the straight (possibly) women in the phandom, 80% ARE attracted to sister daniel.

of the 29.9% of respondents who are "typically attracted to women & id as queer/lesbian/etc.", the lesbian (possibly) women phannies, 73.1% ARE attracted to sister daniel.

we had only 0.4% of respondents say they were "typically attracted to women & id as straight," and of those two straight (possibly) men in the phandom, one of them (aka half our tiny sample size) IS attracted to sister daniel.

of the 40.5% of respondents who are "typically attracted to multiple/other gender(s)," our bi/pan/etc phannie contingent, 86.6% ARE attracted to sister daniel.

of the "typically attracted to nobody" crowd, 11.3% of total respondents, there are 30.8% of you who ARE attracted to sister daniel anyway.

most interesting takeaways for me:

76.5% of all respondents ARE attracted to sister daniel! this includes a majority of those in almost all categories, with the exceptions being the two straight (possibly) men who are split 50-50, which is really just not a big enough sample size to say much more than yes, it is possible for at least one straight (possibly) man to be attracted to her, and of course, a majority of those phannies who answered "typically attracted to nobody" are also not attracted to sister daniel, which seems self-explanatory (although she is an exception for some of you!).

"majority" is a bit of an understatement for the rest of you - the numbers in those other categories range from the lowest at 73.1% of lesbian (possibly) women, to the highest at 90.5% of gay (possibly) men.

92% of those who are some flavor of queer & experience some sort of attraction ARE attracted to sister daniel! which is almost all of them - seems it's nearly impossible to resist the allure of sister daniel if you're any type of queer and experience any type of attraction! really cannot comprehend the 8% of y'all who said no here, love you anyway though <3 for the straight phannies, which was admittedly a very small sample size, that number was significantly lower (but still a strong majority) at 77.3%. this was what i most wanted to compare when adding more nuance to the answer choices, and i'm not surprised the number is higher for queer phannies of any type!

and now i'm just going to say basically the same thing from the end of the analysis of round one, because it's truer than ever....

IMPORTANT CONCLUSIONS:

attraction to sister daniel transcends typical ideas about gender and sexual/romantic attraction in a way that confuses many of us, but also turns most of us on.

thank you for coming to my ted talk (again). (is that still a thing people say?)
