I wouldn't know. Female licensed professional engineers are paid more than their male counterparts.
Can you prove that?
I'm sure its getting better for women with degrees in trained professions.
Women from my generation simply had no recourse. But, women today do. And they're not gonna keep their mouth's shut.
But, there's still the issue in other type jobs. I mean, how many times has Walmart been sued for gender inequality.
It's much easier for women than it is for men to get into engineering schools, to get engineering jobs, and to get promoted in engineering. Same thing for programming.
The field is dominated by men because most women simply don't want to be engineers or programmers. It's very possible that there's an aptitude component as well; there are many more men with high IQs than there are women with high IQs (also many more retarded men than retarded women). This isn't a belief. This is a fact.
Science still tends to be perceived as a “man’s world” (1), and women frequently face hostility in the lab environment. Ben, who was born Barbara, began facing these challenges even before he began his undergraduate career at MIT, when his guidance counselor discouraged him from applying to the elite tech school. At MIT, despite high marks in classes and impressive research credentials, he faced sexist attitudes from students and faculty alike. After solving a difficult math problem that had stumped many other (male) students, he was accused of having a boyfriend solve it for him.

I'm specifically referencing that he says they're 'forced' to higher minorities and you say they 'can't get them', however their performance is always above average.
The framework of how you guys say it almost sounds racist. What's the issue? In our Company the Engineers are Indian and Iranian because America physics scores are low, and so are graduate rates, and people that live here are idiots.
Like I said before, even the damned Canadians are better hires than America Engineers, and you're trying to convince me the security is black out of desire for minority hire?
Don't be delusional. They hire black people to do security for the same reason they hire Indians to build software. They're better at it.

There are further differences though. The IQ of men swing more wildly than that of women: at a genius level IQ of 145 men outnumber women 8 by 1...
So you think it's a huge coincidence that men have accomplished far more historically and far more in the field of science than women? Not very likely.. it's just biology.

So, you're putting credibility about gender hiring in tech fields into an anecdotal account account from a transgender (meaning very emotionally attached to this issue) neuro-scientist (wonder what his research shows on something he's predisposed to bias for)?

The education trend of woman was based on discrimination not Biology. This is why the IQ gap CLOSED, and Women have rising scores.
Also NO, I don't think comparing an outlier to an outlier says anything significant amount mathematical expression of IQ.
It's like you make your point to entertain the notion women have not scientifically and historically contributed.

XX, XY, more genetic material meaning more likely to have dominant genes for a trait, dominant genes causing expression of the mean -- bringing up low IQs and bringing down high IQs.. Having no effect on the average IQ but a huge effect on the amount of low IQs and high IQs. This was already explained to you.

You have a problem with that?
You have a problem with a scientist that experienced the field as both a female and a male?

No. Your point is Women score around 'the middle' correct? Like a circle right? This is incorrect. The trend is they do not score low.

You've clearly been in the field your whole life posting a chart with no explanation or title or any information of any kind attached to it on the X/Y axis, you don't even address it.
Thanks for the red circles though.
