I have a list of months for the last FY which includes totals for Men/Women for each month. When I try to filter by just one or the other, I see no changes in my data because the totals are related to the month in question. For example, when I do a list and click on that number, it highlights the coorresponding month for that number. Is it possible, with just numbers, to filter by gender?

hi @bw70316,
you could try the "UNPIVOT" function in power query when the data is loaded
another way would be using DAX to try like here

So I am trying to take this data and filter it my Male and Female. These are totals. I am assuming this can be done in some way, or would I need the original data to illustrate male/female. Sorry for the poor post above, I was in hurry for a meeting
So, you would want to unpivot those columns as suggested by @DaFloDo
