But he is not sexist. It is not sexist to believe biology could influence interests or to cite peer reviewed research on the topic.

  Any real scientist knows that all "peer reviewed research" are not equal, there can be very low quality research. Almost in all "citations", he made a jump from a small experimental study to women in STEM field (or, maybe he simply copied the points of prominent alt-right figures). See this https://www.wired.com/story/the-pernicious-science-of-james-damores-google-memo/ https://www.wired.com/story/the-pernicious-science-of-james-... And there are many "debunkings" like this.

    There are also many articles backing up his cited research, the consensus from the articles I've read indicate two of the factors were very strongly correlated and others were very debatable. He did jump to conclusions, but that does not mean he is sexist.

      Okay.
