Doing a poll with a 0-10, 11-20 etc or even 0-20, 21-40 etc would have probably yielded a more accurate result. you have 40% of the answer in just one vote, 20% of an answer in another and just 10% in each of the remaining 4 votes.

Just glancing at the 60.8% weighted average may explain your observations.

You have the first 40% ("hairy" - Option 1) having 23 votes, the last 40% ("shaven" - Option 3,4,5 & 6) having 91 votes. You could dismiss option 2 as its exactly equal both ways. Your result should be around 75% are shaven.
In hindsight it would have been simpler to have equal groupings but I don't think it significantly affects the outcome. To explain the calculation, I assumed each response was in the middle of the group, so if someone put 0-40, I counted that as 20; if someone put 80-90, I counted that as 85.

I've just redone the numbers and the average is coming out at 61.1%. If I group all of the latter groups together, so that there are three groups: 0-40 (20%), 40-60 (50%) and 60-100 (80%), the average comes out a little higher at 63.8%.

I think that, even though over 85% are saying saying half or more women are shaved, there are a lot of people saying 'about half' and that is anchoring the average where it is.

Sorry for the technical explanation when all we want to talk about is pussy, be it smooth or stubbly.
