The article states that 3 out of four ER doctors are male. So, out of 50% of 75% of the sample, they found a very slim, close to noise, discrepancy. They are not focusing on a very strict group, they are simply taking 60% of the group and comparing it to the rest 40%. A small discrepancy in the data is obviously expected, even on large samples. The article's author even has the courage of saying that the lack os women working as ER doctors is a sign of a lack of gender equality on medicine. Cmon now. Women make up a larger percentage of medicine graduates over the whole western world. Maybe they simply would prefer to work on less stressful environments than ER and it's not a matter of prejudice? PC took over the world. Idiocracy is already a reality.
