Sure. I'm just explaining why more men are homeless than women:
>Sixty-seven percent of all people experiencing homelessness within the 2018 Point-in-Time (PiT) Count are individuals. There are 260,284 men compared to 106,119 women. Thus, men are the majority of individuals experiencing homelessness (70 percent) followed by women (29 percent).
From what I see, there is no state that skews so far that women are even close to a majority. The worst cases still almost have a supermajority of homeless men.
Oh, sure, I think the disparity is real. I just don’t think it’s because otherwise equal men and women are cohabiting at different rates - I’d look more at things like the disparate rates of imprisonment (itself a complex problem) or how things like substance abuse patterns or social behaviors affect someone’s ability to stay housed.
To be clear, I think those are all real problems, all hard to solve, and we should be doing a lot better at them. I just don’t think gender _explains_ homelessness as much as it correlates with some of the root causes.
