So who says yes more often, overall?

The two rankings above are the extremes. Across all 112 activities the split looks like this - and on 33 of them the difference is too small to call.

Counted in activities, not percentages: each one is a single activity from the game.

Method

Both partners answered the same activities separately, never seeing each other’s choices. For each activity we count the share of women and the share of men who picked “Yes, but I’m shy about it” or “Love this!” and rank activities by the gap between the two. Only activities answered by at least 100 women and 100 men are shown. In the overall split a difference counts as clear only when it survives a test on the couples who disagreed - a small gap on a small sample stays in the undecided group. Anonymized and aggregated; no response can be traced to a person or couple.
