Men are more factual and data oriented

Any Biology 101 student can tell you that

Certain personality types are more common among male than females

ISTJ for example the "engineer" personality is almost 300% more likely in males than females[/quote]

I just love this.  "Women are more emotional" says the sex that carries out the vast majority of violent crimes.  But I guess that's the privilege of being the dominant group -- you get to set the definitions and the language.

I also love using data from one sexist system (medicine and social science) to back up another sexist system.

Exactly. 65% of psychiatrists are men. And they diagnose women more often than men as being "neurotic." Hmmmmmm......[/quote]

AMA reports 57% of recent psychiatry residents are female so expect those numbers to change soon.  https://wire.ama-assn.org/education/how-medical-specialties-vary-gender

When it comes to psychology, the ratio has widened to 66% female, but they go of course through different training http://www.apa.org/workforce/publications/13-demographics/index.aspx As well all know practitioners from both fields work together from a clinical and behavorial standpoint.

The National Girls Collaborative Project claims that 62% of the social science workforce is female.  https://ngcproject.org/statistics

The following article claims that women are at parity or better in life sciences, psychology and social sciences in academia in both students and professorships  http://www.umass.edu/preferen/You%20Must%20Read%20This/CeciGintherKahnWilliamsPSPI-10-2014.pdf

I might reconsider  that academic research, at least in the social sciences to be sexist if women are more likely to be the authors.
