    I think it is important to highlight that this authority gap is in the *public sphere*. This is all a legacy of “separate spheres doctrine”. Think about it: There is an equal and opposite authority gap in the domestic sphere, where we culturally expect men to lack competence with child rearing and other caring roles. I agree with everything she says about what I have long called the “legitimacy gap” of women in the workplace, but we have equal work to do cultivating men’s competence and legitimacy in the domestic sphere. Only then will we truly be able to fly with both wings. (Because women’s full participation in the public sphere will require full participation by men in the domestic sphere.

      I appreciate the sentiment but its no necessarily true that work in the two spheres ought to be evenly distributed. What is behind the motivation to equalise the genders in both spheres?

    Thanks a lot Prof. Sieghart. I would like to quote a review of her book because as Husband and father I feel exactly the same:
    “I knew some of what Sieghart wrote about but not all - that was sad on my part ! The really good part was at the end that told me clearly I can actually do something right away towards misogyny, sexism and unconscious bias.”

    Privileged people can make good arguments. But privileged people should be careful when preaching to others about inequality, and Sieghart is very privileged. Her authority on the subject of gender inequity is based on a private education, a University of Oxford place and a host of family connections. The Private Eye satire was not really about gender; it was about the way Sieghart seemed to talk down to people who did not have the same knowledge and understanding as her.
    Sieghart also plays fast and loose with some of the evidence. Young boys who pretend to know non-existent maths concepts are not necessarily over-confident. They might be pretending to be confident. That is something very different.

  • @DragonYang01
    @DragonYang01 10 месяцев назад +2

    Why women care about how they look so much? For most of women, their confidence starts with their appearance. They spend substantial hours/effort on look every single day in their lives. If you have 5% less productive hours every single day than men statistically, would you think, statistically, women would achieve less than men? This accumulative effect over thousands of human history has built in in our language, instants, and preferences. To close the authority gap is pointless because it is not even desirable to a majority of women who prefer not to fight a war with guns in their hands, do labors with their arms, or sacrifice their lives first when in danger.substanteous

    It makes sense though. The brain is constantly looking for ways to optimize and extrapolate in a world with little knowledge. Given that FAR more men have built this world than women it's not super surprising a bias has formed. It is often true that women achieve less than men, though a few women do achive a lot, and often a lot more than the average men.
    Those few who do achieve considerably more than the average will sense this powerful bias formed over millennia working against them.
    Poorly dressed men are also discriminated against, as are men of color. The entire world is constantly trying to make sense of everything and predict what's ahead with little information available.

    God loves you and takes care of you so that this message reaches you. God is the one who created this great universe and has complete control over it. And the greatest loss that a person loses in this life is that he lives while he does not know God who created him, knowing the Messenger of Muhammad, the last of the messengers, and the Islamic religion, the last of the heavenly religions. The great intelligence, before you believe in something or not, is to read it, study it, and understand it well, and then you have the choice to believe in it or not. I advise you on this now before you do not have time to do that.
