And everything is "problematic."
Good!
SA has been neither Scientific nor American for a couple of decades, at least.
[And as a Yute, I loved to read the publication - Very Sad...]
Ditto National Geographic.
They ignore what almost everyone knows to be true.
Most women do not want to study that hard.
Most women do not enjoy math and science, inherently, as mos women do not enjoy more abstract fields that usually have problems that require exact answers.
Most women would rather marry a guy who has studied that hard. They get all the benefits without having to study hard themselves.
These are often inherent preferences that most men and women have.
Its not discrimintion or actively keeping anyone out. They generaly aren’t interested in being there.
I am an engineer. First year we had the most women enrolled, 5-10% of the classes in the first semester. About half left after the first year. Another half left through the second year. Changed their majors to business or education or journalism. The ones that were left were either beautiful looking and had guys doing their work for them, or they were the best women left and could handle the courses, and often did pretty well.
Its hard work and most women don’t like putting in a lot, a lot of studying and delaying gratification for the payoffs down the road. Better jobs, careers actually. Earning a signficantly higher salary. Doing more interesting work, sometimes.
We dont see a clamor for more men in jobs they have minrity percentages in, precisely because we men know those are jobs most men are not inclined to want to do, inherently. Its nt about unfairness its about preference. Its also no surprise most of these exact same jobs men also would not normally gravitage to, dont pay enough to support a family on.
I suppose if I was a Star Wars fan still I’d be offended by this crap but since that is over all I can do is laugh.
Didn't they cover that in Deadpool 2?
DEADPOOL: Thank you, Bedlam. I was always appalled by the blatant sexism in the group's name. X-Men! Men! The point is, our group will be forward thinking. Gender neutral. From now on, we'll be known as… X-Force.
(spoiler alert) And they lasted the length of one parachute jump.
I stopped reading Unscientific Unamerican years ago. (Once, it was a very interesting and informative magazine.)
Keep your damned justice away from my suspension bridge, jet aircraft, and medical technology.
“ Social Inclusion Tolerance and Healing”
I think the article is a resounding example of the Social Healing, Inclusive Tolerance that Scientific American is offering its readers.
so no more equality, they want full commie equity
This is not the article you’re looking for.
This is a very old magazine; it’s interesting to compare the decline of the magazine to the decline of country that birthed it. To quote Trump: “Sad”.
I’ll use the word “Communist” because that is what is really being pushed.
Scientific American has been FULL RETARD and WOKETARD since I canceled my subscription in 1973!
The only science they have done since 1971 is “HOW TO PERFECT SUCKING DEMOCRAT/PROGRESSIVE D*CK”.
This is what passes for “academics” in education today:
