medicine would not fully fall under the STEM category but it does involve some of its components/fields of study in it.
What are you quoting here?

Is it easier for a Stem woman to get a job than a Stem man? Would a female ChemE get preferential hiring treatment over an equal male because of quotas, tax breaks, etc?
How about entry pay differences?

But it turns out, women may process this type of information at a slower rate, so instructors, she says, should reduce their number of words per minute to below 100 – in other words, if you want women to absorb the basics of math, you need to speak to them more slowly.
let's skew the educational system even more in favor of women
maybe we can get college populations to something truly insane like 70/30!!!

Science has proven that men and women think differently and our better at different things. They aren't the same. Feminists just want to push the idea that they're as good as men at everything because they have some weird inadequacy feeling. But there's nothing wrong with being good at different things, and women would be smart to work with their natural aptitudes

I've seen CHS say that elementary schools are set up to reward the natural behavior of girls and punish the natural behavior of boys.

it's more of "if you give an inch they'll take a yard" fear
if they admit some small cognitive difference, it won't take long until that devolves into "makin sammich" territory for some plebs

100%
that + females developing faster puts millions of boys behind by middle school and they never catch up. seriously college graduation is something insane now like 60/40. if the sexes were reversed, that would be this symbolic stat for feminists
modern feminism (and lots of other SJW rhetoric) isn't about equality. it's about vengeance in many cases

Crazy thing though is most of the "happy" women I see are ones in a traditional female job and have no qualms about being the prototypical wife.
I mean there's outliers of course, but makes you wonder.

It's almost like we're genetically predisposed to take on certain roles and find satisfaction in them after several hundred million years of evolution.
I mean science right? Or is science not cool when it goes against the narrative?

i don't think that's as much about the nature of biological differences in the sexes as much as human nature regarding expectations. a person (man or woman) who says "all i want in life is to find a person i'm pretty compatible with, have kids, and raise them" has reasonable outlook on life that is attainable. there is nothing wrong with having a goal of achieving more in life, but a person who expects all that will naturally be more unhappy. that's just the struggle of life (and why achieving goals is such a rewarding process)

Because it's easier to find a husband in college.

Same reason that girls dominate nursing. It's part of our makeup. Women tend to gravitate to more nurturing professions while men gravitate to more technical professions.

If i got a nickel for every time i heard a girl complain about how hard high school level math and science is to them.............

The truth is that most girls decide they don't like math or that they are not good at math.
This happens with boys too. However, there are social pressures for boys to go into higher earning STEM fields, while girls are typically allowed to give up and persue the humanities.

Probably because they just aren't interested in that stuff. The ones I do know have done well, because it is a lot of tedious work
Think about what engineering programs have the highest concentration of brawds....environmental, chemical, biological, etc

I'd agree with this.
There's been more than one nurse I know of that can't do basic proportions. Considering they are supposed to know about pharmacology, that's a scary proposition.
