Studies indicate that women in the Western World tend to be more religious than men.[1]

A summary of the book Women and the Animal Rights Movement by Emily Gaarder indicates:

“ Animal rights is one of the fastest growing social movements today. Women greatly outnumber men as activists, yet surprisingly, little has been written about the importance and impact of gender on the movement. Women and the Animal Rights Movement combats stereotypes of women activists as mere sentimentalists by exploring the political and moral character of their advocacy on behalf of animals.[2] ”

Atheism and women

See also: Atheism and women

Surveys throughout the world and other data indicate that women are less inclined to be atheists.[3] [4]

In 2016, Atheist Alliance International (AAI) conducted an annually reoccurring atheist census project and found:

“ At the time of writing, the Atheist Census Project recorded that on average worldwide 73.2% of respondents were male. The result is consistent with other research... As such, the focus of many scholarly papers has been on seeking to explain this persistent observation."[5] ”

In 2015, BloombergView reported concerning the United States: "According to a much-discussed 2012 report from the Pew Research Center on Religion and Public Life, ...women are 52 percent of the U.S. population but only 36 percent of atheists and agnostics.[6]

A 2009 article in LiveScience.com entitled Women More Religious Than Men reported: "A new analysis of survey data finds women pray more often then men, are more likely to believe in God, and are more religious than men in a variety of other ways...The latest findings, released Friday, are no surprise, only confirming what other studies have found for decades.[7] In 2007, the Pew Research Center found that American women were more religious than American men.[7] Below are some articles related to irreligion and the treatment of animals:

Each year thousands of dogs are stolen in China and as many as 20 million dogs are killed in China to satisfy the dog meat industry.[12]

According to ABC News, gruesome techniques are used in Chinese dog slaughterhouses.[13]

China has the world's largest atheist population.[14] It also has state atheism (See: China and atheism).

Most atheists in the world are East Asian (see: Asian atheism).
