> Researchers in a recent study found no sexism in STEM faculty positions as more women are now hired for STEM tenure-track jobs at a 2:1 ratio.
So I'm not exactly sure how to interpret this (nevertheless interesting) result.
Not that under-representation is necessarily evidence of bias, which is what the word "sexism" implies. The study's authors, Ceci and Williams, are aware of this:
> This led to their conclusion that gender bias did not cause the small number of women in STEM fields. They said the small representation of women in the sector was caused by their own reluctance to enter these fields.
It's only sexism if it benefits men.
It's not even clear this is firmly sexism, it could be effects from 20 years ago trickling up to today. Our current educational pipeline is long and involves literally thousands of people making their own decisions about how to teach you.
