Such studies that show society treating women and men different based on expected gender roles has been done multiple times in many fields, and if we call that male and female cards then we must accept that for every place where a person can make a stereotypical assumption based on gender role then that is a place where one gender is favored and an other is disfavored. One prime example of those is with the justice system, where a male-sound name get found guilty more often and get harsher punishment because they don't get to automatic play the female card, as backup by blind testing at the subconscious level. The average hiring manager has indeed some gender expectation. Based on some fascinating recent study done on judges, I would expect to see a major difference in how rational judgement a hiring manager do based on how long time it has been since last time they ate. The lower their blood sugar level are the more likely a person are to use shortcuts in their thinking. Note that this has nothing to do with the belief of a "patriarchy", nor can it be translated into power cards that get played in some zero sum game.
