I have not once mentioned biology in this comment chain. I made my original comment to dispel the myth that Damore claimed that women have, on average, less intelligence than men.
Whether you agree or disagree with the other claims made about biology is orthogonal to this statement.
- bduerst 9y agoYou're right, you tried to reclassify what Damore said with this: >This is a statement of women's choices, not their ability. When his argument was about biological ability. Damore's paper is orthogonal from you're claiming it to be.
