> It used strawman arguments. Notably that the world is looking for a 50/50 split in gender ratios. Most reasonable people believe that even in ideal equilibrium state that this is not the expected outcome (although I'm sure there exist some people that push for 50/50 or greater). It's hardly a strawman; even people in this thread believe that: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14970828 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14970828 "mainstream gender equality says there should be a roughly equal split" "50/50 split might be naive. It assumes men and women should be equally represented and that makes liberally minded folks feel good. But what's the alternative? Status quo? A different and arbitrary split? I don't see any good arguments against equal representation."
