    Like others have alluded to, women with ME/CFS have many of the same experiences as men. To have a better idea what, if any, gender differences there are, mixed samples would be better. Though with in-depth qualitative research, sample sizes can be quite small, so questionnaires might be required to look for signals that are sufficiently strong.

    And probably one would need to use other variables such as sexual orientation to get any stronger signals.

    That seems imperative if any gender differences in response are claimed. I would go further and make the questions gender neutral, and the people analysing the responses blinded to the race, gender, class and sexual orientation of the respondents.

    So it is a bad thing promoting the hegemony of masculinity. This is in direct opposition to the encouragement to get children exercising! Maybe it is just because it is fun! Or maybe women are actually dominant and/or wiser and send the men out early on cold, damp Sunday mornings to take the kids to football!

    It is all so much rubbish.

    Real men don't visualise masculinity and identity threat.

    If that doesn't make things "kick-off" nothing will.
