Shakti, Oops! :-) Usually I proofread, but yesterday I was multi-tasking (typing in between other, concurrent tasks) so I posted sans checking. I missed two, significant errors in my previous post, as follows: quote:
ElanSubdued: I wasn't speaking from the point of view of apologists (white or otherwise), but rather from a broader, sociological view. Indeed though, you're likely correct that statistically the gender hiring pendulum is still biased. I missed a word: "indeed though, you're likely correct that statistically the gender hiring pendulum is still biased *binarily*." quote:
ElanSubdued: Examine second and first world countries and the playing field becomes very different. Certainly, I'll admit, I'm speaking from the perspective of one who lives in a privileged country - a country where individual freedoms and gender equality are respected and constantly under review. I meant: "examine second and *third* world countries and the playing field becomes very different." Sorry if these errors caused confusion. Elan.
