Hence seeking to hire females/women "cause diversity" is pretty demeaning. And sex/gender is a pretty poor way to introduce diversity in the first place. You want to seek out people that have vastly different experiences and/or personalities.
- Ixiaus 12y agoYou're being downvoted heavily but I actually agree with you - diversity shouldn't be pigeonholed into just physical diversity. Diversity for the sake of diversity smells funny to me too but it's also near impossible to know when you need diversity for the injection of different points of view.
