Why do universities push "Women in STEM"?

>There's no innate benefit to having a 50:50 gender ratio in the sciences.
no, but there is in increased competition for university places and jobs.

why are people surprised by this

>let's make it more competitive
>by making it less competitive for half the population

somehow you fucked up in your reasoning user

>systematically excluded from participation in those fields?

Literally the womens fault. And I don't mean "hurr durr women r stupid xd" they literally systematically exclude themselves. They did a test in germany where they would let maths and physics teachers grade works by boys and girls with the same response and their "surprising" result was that female teacher would unconsiously grade boys better for the exact dame answers, while male teachers grade everybody equally.

What's funny about the study is that the women who did the study conclude that they "can't really explain yet why thos effect doesn't happen with male teachers" implying that being sexist is the natural form instead of asking WHY THE FUCK WOMEN GRADE GIRLS WORSE IN STEM SUBJECTS

holy shitfuck this is golden

>Girls and women cannot count on being rewarded for their effort
effort is just a way to catch up if you're less smart.
If you have to put in more effort now, you can't put much more effort when you actually need it.

Basically, a guy finds biologists and they present him with facts. And the Gender ''researchers'' deny that there is any difference between the sexes.

>gender researches say there's no differences
>actual scientists say there are, present physical evidence, testosterone in womb, during infancy, throughout life, demonstrate effects on decisions, arguments for which traits lead to reproduction, etc
>gender researches still say there's no differences

the end. just like life. scientists try to support their claims with evidence. everyone else sticks there fingers in their ears and screams "nah nah nah nah nah nah nah".

Holy shit
Why have I never heard about this? Don't people realize this explains literally everything?
It's not men discriminating against women.
It's women discriminating against other women.

There will never be equality and men literally can't do anything to end it because it's women crippling themselves

>Don't people realize this explains literally everything?
everything women do is to compare to other women.
Dress to go out? To impress girl friends
Dress like whore? To get more attention from men and women than other women
etc

Why do we have a /pol/ thread on Veeky Forums?

Hey, that just reminded me..

It needs to be said often, so don't be shy. Speak right up any time you feel it.

well it's still about science and math...

but works
and for gorilla posters.

Normally I'm inclined to believe your explanation, but in that study, Germany was the exception to the rule; male and female teachers graded the same way in the other two countries studied (Switzerland and Austria). So it's not really good evidence

That's a really shitty study though. There isn't even a defined total population, the sample is neither random nor big, it's been done over an online survey website (which leads to a whole lot of methodological problems as well). Not to forget that "experimental" designs in psychology have huge reliability problems. Don't just trust everything you read. This article is garbage.

Explain this picture to me.

It's the reckoning of the cucks
