> Women, on average, have more:
> Openness directed towards feelings and aesthetics rather than ideas. Women generally also have a stronger interest in people rather than things, relative to men (also interpreted as empathizing vs. systemizing).
> These two differences in part explain why women relatively prefer jobs in social or artistic areas. More men may like coding because it requires systemizing and even within SWEs, comparatively more women work on front end, which deals with both people and aesthetics.

- whatshisface 4y agoNot to split hairs, but that's a claim that the average degree of preference is higher among men, not that the average degree of being suited for it is higher among men.
- dharmaturtle 4y agoFair. I do consider it hairsplitting, but I suppose nuance is very important to these discussions.
