I'd totally buy that diversity was a problem because "all the people who looked at this were from a few schools studying the same degree, and came up in the same academic circles and so had the same idea.". But the fact that the people studying the issue had similar genitals seems irrelevant.
- 14 8y agoThis is just a guess, but my guess is that although gender differences are not so important in today’s world, even back as early as the 80s I as a child saw gender roles in my parents. Dad went to work mom stayed home. Go farther back and those things become stronger yet I believe. I think gender had a much stronger influence on ones mindset then it does today. Now people are okay when other gender identify as the opposite sex. Back then I have no doubt there would have been gender biases.
