"If these characterizations are even close to accurate, we should expect the pervasive, damaging biases against women leaders to diminish substantially, if not end entirely, once Millennials assume positions of economic, academic, and political power" Their premise is flawed. They're assuming causation. It's entirely possible that even if every single person was honestly free of all biases, and had been for a long time, that we wouldn't see an equal percentage of every group in every domain. All it would take would be something like preference, where males just tend to want to be CEOs more than females, for males to be "overrepresented" the same way if women tend to want to be day care supervisors more than men they will be "overrepresented." Then, as soon as one group tends to do a thing more, the natural human inclination to simplify and summarize will result in heuristics that are largely indistinguishable from prejudice.
