Technically true of course, but >99% of the population will identify with a single gender throughout their life. The correlation is so strong that it's not even really a correlation anymore.
- pclmulqdq 3y agoIf you're going with a probabilistic argument, I think BYU students are more likely to stick with mormonism (let alone Christianity) than Bryn Mawr students with their gender. That doesn't mean you aren't stereotyping people, though.
- Wowfunhappy 3y agoIrrespective of the AI discussion (computers don't care if you're stereotyping or not), I really don't think it's stereotyping to assume someone who went to a school which literally only admits women is probably a woman. There's a difference between assuming someone's gender because they're a cheerleader, and assuming because they won the women's cheerleading championship. I also assume that the person who drives a fire truck is a fire fighter.
