In a survey conducted in Florida, C.Sutton asked a group of female elderly for 14 white and 13 black retired women aged 70-79 "with which sex do you prefer to spend your leisure?" Each elderly ranked the three choices: A: male(s), B: female(s), C: both sexes, assigning rank 1 to the most desired choice, rank 2 to the next most desired rank 3 to the least desired choice. The first object in the ranking corresponds to "male", the second to "female" and the third to "both".
