remove data point from ggplot

Hello, I'm just starting to learn R.

How can a data point be removed from ggplot?
I would like to remove the "Total Age" row as it's skewing the plot.

All help and guidance is appreciated.

Examples below...

library(ggplot2)

my_data <- read.csv(file = 'Age_data.csv', header = TRUE)
ggplot(my_data) +
  geom_point(aes(x=Characteristics, y=Male))

Example of data below...

I would use the dplyr function filter().

library(ggplot2)
library(dplyr)

my_data <- read.csv(file = 'Age_data.csv', header = TRUE)

my_data %>%
  filter(Characteristics != "Total Age") %>%
  ggplot(aes(x=Characteristics, y=Male)) +
  geom_point()

Thank you very much! :+1:
