1) Why should we assume it's "probably impossible to solve the problem of women being harder on women"? 2) How could we solve "the problem of men being harder on women without realizing it" if, as this article illustrates, we can measure the genders' responses to one another independently? Edit: I've been ignoring this premise for the sake of argument, but now it's time to raise an objection: Men aren't harder on other men. Both men and women are harder on women. This article itself demonstrates this. (It's more complex than just "being harder on." But, in the context of this article I take "being harder/easier on" to be short for "tending to respond negatively/positively to verbal contributions, regardless of the contribution's merit.")
