I recently got on to Heather, an evolutionary biologist, in the above video.

Okay, I'm having a slight difficulty with this. Did we ever state that equality was exactly equal? What's the correct rad-fem analysis? Help me here.

I do recall feminists trying at one point for "parity" too. For example, let's say almost all the nurses are female; almost all the pharmacy assistants are male. The males are making lots more money for a job that is on par with nursing. Let's fix this.

I guess the issue might really be who is at the top. If there are more men in the math department at the top, does this matter? If there are more women in the english department at the top?

And so what? Feminism is about women's lives. Let's say that men and women are massively overlapping populations with somewhat different distributions of average traits. What does that say about individuals and their lives?

On the other hand, just because something is statistical and fuzzy, doesn't mean it's not real.

On the other hand, I fear that, if the differences between men and women are biologically based and immutable, that would freeze into place certain differences in the opportunity structure for men and women.

On the other hand, what if math is taught in some way that men really enjoy and women can't learn in? Say it's all shouty and assholey math teaching and women don't like that? Ha!
