Hi!
I'm looking at Egypt from y. 1995-2015 though I only have problems with the data from y.2015. That's strange I can find data covering men's attitudes in file EGIQ73FL.DTA (Women's file). It seems like there is in the variable questioning "Should the practice of FGC continue or stop?". I separated the variable by gender and did the same for "Do you think the other gender want this practice to continue or stop?" to get women's perception of male attitudes. I then took the mean of the two variables to compare proportions since performing an LR was not possible. Would this be an appropriate way to analyze the data?

The children's file is named EGCH73DT.DTA and my supervisor advised me to match the data based on the mother's line number to compare intention to circumcise with attitudes and perception of attitudes hence these variables are located in the women's file. However, I have some trouble with how to do this if you have any advice that would be greatly appreciated.

I hope I made myself clear and that we have the same data, otherwise, I'm a bit confused over what data I have found.
