Why would men just happen to be more competent?
- inglor_cz 4y agoUh, a question of the pipeline? Corporate boards are mostly filled with 50+ year olds, and in those cohorts, there may be more men than women that fulfill the requirements. (This is likely to change in the next generation, as women now generally outcompete men in tertiary education, sometimes wildly so.) It is not too dissimilar from the familiar problem of Californian tech companies: they want some black programmers really badly in order to check some diversity boxes, but the pool of candidates leans heavily Asian.
- codefreeordie 4y agoBecause they're required to save almost half the spaces for women, but they don't have to save almost have the spaces for men. Women will be aggressively recruited to fill the mandatory slots. Not worth looking for men at all, you don't need them unless they happen to be so good it's worth burning a slot on one.
- codefreeordie 4y agoLove the downvotes for speaking the obvious and transparent truth. Of course, the reason is obvious -- the sexist and racist trash that inhabit this place and who won't be satisfied until male babies are drowned in the river at birth again.
- kelseyfrog 4y agowhat a great opportunity to get curious instead!
