To take one of the least explosive issues: there is a great deal of overlap on mental and behavioral dimensions between men and women, and there are outliers in both sexes. But in terms of averages across large groups, men and women have (slightly) different aptitudes and significantly different interests and priorities (e.g. desires regarding work-life balance, orientation towards children, risk tolerance, job preferences).

This is how Larry Summers lost his job as President of Harvard. Which took some doing, because IIRC, when he got his PhD, he was the youngest person ever to have been granted a PhD by Harvard.

It it long past time for a purge of the liberals and Marxists from all areas of life.

I scanned through Wiki.

Summers got his PhD at age 27 (not the youngest).

He became a tenured full professor of economics at Harvard at age 28 - which was the youngest STEM professor in modern times.

Remarkably, Summers is now back at Harvard, as a full professor and the Director of an endowed “Center” at the Kennedy School of Government.
