Wow that’s not what I wrote - I can see now you’re just going to deliberately misinterpret and misrepresent anything I write.
But you are making my point for me, so thanks I guess. If you don’t see a problem with one gender of masters graduates being at 42%, then you sure aren’t interested in equality. That such a position is not universally appealing should mystify nobody.
What evidence do you have that this disparity is due to trying to level the admissions playing field and not, say, the dropout rate? Lots of people never finish their graduate degree. Maybe women are better at finishing it than men? Do you have actual evidence to back up your claims?
Of course. None of this data is in dispute, I just use it as an example of how it makes perfect sense that these policies are gonna alienate some men. It’s not a difficult concept - I don’t see the controversy.
Imagine for a moment that the gender data was reversed. There is zero chance you’d be speculating on alternative explanations.
I don’t speak Norwegian. Do you have this data in English? And does this only apply to Norway?
Also, it’s interesting that you got upset about my making assumptions about the things you said and then decided you knew what I would say if the data were reversed. Seems like a double-standard. A bit on the ironic side really.
That’s the evidence you demanded. For a point i wasn’t trying to debate. But of course you never wanted the evidence and were just acting in bad faith the whole time.
Your behaviour is incredibly hostile and alienating. Which is the whole point I’ve been trying to make. Don’t be shocked when some guys have had enough of this stuff and decide to join the anti-science anti-progress team.
I demanded nothing, I requested. And, again, I don’t know Norwegian, so I can’t read the evidence. Your getting upset about that seems… hostile. And alienating, since it suggests it’s my fault that I don’t know Norwegian. Which, again, seems like double-standards. Seems like you need to work on those to me.
Supposedly they did. In Norwegian. And then berated me for not accepting their evidence after I told them I don’t understand Norwegian. Of course, for all I know, it could be toaster sale statistics.
So you’re saying addressing historical imbalances is a bad thing? Keep the white guys on top where they belong?
