[quote=Anonymous]Somebody mentioned gender “equity” in STEM fields. I know I’m going to get a lot of flak for saying this, but some people told me that gender discrimination against boys in STEM admissions is even more egregious than racial discrimination. Sure, some women can be good at science, but many are not. Last year a conservative Black man ran for Congress in Michigan and he was slammed for saying that women’s brains have a different structure from men’s. He’s a Stanford CS graduate and has a Harvard MPA. AA or not, a Stanford AND Harvard graduate is smarter than 99%+ of the general population. But doesn’t he have a point? Lincoln Republicans thought that emancipated Black men, given proper education and understanding of our political system, would be able to participate in a representative democracy. But even the most radical Republicans rejected universal suffrage at the time. Because they knew what a slippery slope would be if they allowed women to vote. [/quote]
