"Check the names Tory(1) and Tory(2). The Tory labeled African-American is rated at 44% and the Tory labeled English is 52%. Care to explain?"
Was this edited out? I haven't seen it in the thread. I haven't read the whole thing, though...
Anyway, I'd guess the lower rating for the Tory listed as African-American has more to do with gender; it's a NN for Salvatore. When I was growing up, the only other (than me) Tory I knew was actually a black guy, but most people think of it as feminine because Victoria's much more common than Salvatore.
Names used for guys that are perceived as feminine are not widely popular.
