Yes, the post saying "I need a woman for a role mode" is limiting one's role models by gender.
- thelibrarian 13y agoNo it is not. It is a woman for a rolemodel, not a woman for my one and only and forever rolemodel. Having a woman for a rolemodel does not exclude also having a man as a rolemodel.
- JohnHaugeland 13y agoA limitation is still a limitation even if it isn't universal.
- king_jester 13y agoIf you really believed this, then you would agree that this is true for women in STEM in that the field is heavily stacked with men. It is totally justified to counteract such an implicit limitation in the field by someone putting in extra effort to meet women in STEM.
