"It was to combat the then-existing blatant inequality in the workplace, and the theory set forth was that in a truly equal world where, say, 70% were white, 15% were latino, and 15% were latino, that a large company needed to also represent that number, because if they didn't then it would mean there must be some prejudice going on. Which was 100% true back then (And clearly even today)"

>I find this theory flawed: 50% of the entire world is male and the other half is female. I look at the membership of vgchartz and I see men outnumber women at a ratio of about 5 to 1.

Males comprise about 83% of the members of this website, a figure seriously distant from the 50% global figure.

Am I to conclude vgchartz is conspiring against female members? That there is a prejudice against women that drives them away?

I don't think so. I think, on average, more men than women are interested in video games thus we end up with this disparity: men are more likely to explore a website like this one and then create an account. I find it too hasty that we conclude there is wrongdoing based solely on such a superficial disparity.

Happenstance is not a real concept, stop spouting such blasphemy. Mr. Runa216altaccountsIpretendaresepratepeople is totally correct, my inability to find success in the workplace is entirely due to having more melanin in my skin. Some bigots will claim it's because I have poor work ethic, don't get a long well with people, have a history of failure, etc. but they're just trying to distract from the real issue! If not for the blatant and rampant systemic racism in this country, I would totally be a millionaire by now! Now I'ma go destroy some random property and disturb the peace until those privileged white people bow down and give me the life that I'm owed.
