Comment TFA is specific to 'hard' science anomoly (Score 1) 1563
The reason is because, as the TFA implies, the data suggests that on average, there is no gender specific bias. CS is the anomaly. The question remains, why is this.
If all of the obvious social reasons apply to CS, why not the other hard sciences? Counterexamples like garbage collector, and teacher do not apply here, because we are talking about the set of fields that are hard science, i.e. math, engineering, computer science.
Amongst those areas of interest, CS is dominated but the others are not. Thus CS must be in L1([a,b]) by the D.C.T., and thus women don't live in [a,b], well at least almost everywhere.
