>Ironicaly this is never mentioned, they just see this is a "many more men can have a higher iq distrubution wise due to the male gauss tail stretching out further than womens, so this is sexist to say that men are smarter".
Because many advocates of GMVH are only interested in justifying the gender imbalance in leadership positions biologically, dismissing any well known social factors (e.g. competence rating on double blind fake CVs)?
"Feminists say GMVH means men are all smarter" is a gross oversimplification of the situation.
If you have 2.5 hours to spend on a video essay, I'd very much recommend "The Bell Curve"[1], a breakdown of the book of the same name. Not so much for the racism part, but for the background on the construction of IQ.

- BlargMcLarg 4y ago>Because many advocates of GMVH are only interested in justifying the gender imbalance in leadership positions biologically This is also a gross oversimplification. Yes, there are a bunch of men at the top willing to take advantage of anything, but there are also hoards of men at the bottom tired of being blamed for things they have no control over and potentially be "indebted" socially, who would never see any benefit from the guys at the top. Problem being the same, address the elephant in the room and stop having people at the top only interested in themselves and willing to exploit everything.
