I'm tired of this overemphasis on diversity spilling into our entertainment.

The first one doesn't really mean anything because society is not obligated to provide female professors so they perform better because of biased feelings involving sexes. The writer's conclusion is idiotic.

 

Whether or not society is obligated to do something is not justification for ignoring a study.

The monkey study is just a part of what I linked and it's meant to be in context with the rest. You're ignoring the rest which is alot stronger evidence in showing that women and men have natural preferences that play the biggest role in choosing professions.

On the other hand, you're literally ignoring what women actually say they want.  

Ignoring either the biological components or the cultural components of the problem is incorrect.  They both matter.  

The majority of women don't want x otherwise they'd be doing it. There's no boundaries for them to get any career they want. Even if we made everything as suited as much to women in schooling/training, they'd still prefer certain careers over others. I don't care if there's "not enough" women in certain careers because it's due to natural occurring preferences and not some conspiracy theory plot by men to stop women from having any good jobs. It's not the job of any government to get so involved in people's lives that they're interested in socially engineering people to correct them. If women want to work in certain fields, let 'em.
