You are not listening to me.
And you're not listening to me. Maybe if I used all caps instead? I acknowledge that men and women, at the aggregate level, have different interest. I'll even cede that they may be partly due to physiology. Will you cede that they may be partly due to social factors and that those social factors may in fact be mutable?
Speaking purely anecdotally, all the women I've worked with in software development have been above average in terms of how hard they work. Some of them have been very competent; some (very much) less so. But none of them were slackers.
Stop trying to turn it into a fucking social issue, its a god damn evolution issue.
Then we would expect to see very little variation from country to country in terms of male vs. female interest in STEM careers, right? Is that the case? It may be the case there there are physiological differences between men and women on an aggregate level that give rise to some of the gender disparity, but you're an idiot if you don't think social issues also play a part. For instance, if it's all physiological then why was women's participation in computer science higher in 1984 than it is today?
