ok. so get ready to hate me but i think that none of these things are real 'problems' and that there are reasons:
> African Americans are 12% of the population but today make up over 65% of the NFL.
During slavery African Amercians were bred to be better stronger slaves. Before that the African environment of their ancestors better favoured physical strength - it is no coincidence imo that the best long distance runners are from Africa and the best sprinters are African Americans. In general black people dominate physical sports - track, field, team sports.
In short what keeps caucasians out is that they aren't as good at sports on average - they just aren't as strong or physically fit.
> Same with Female HR workers. Women make up a massive percentage of HR departments from 72% to 90% and have an interesting habit of discriminating against "unattractive men" and "attractive women" in their hiring practices.(I'm not saying men are perfect just showing that everyone's human)
I'm not sure if this such a strong trend. I can believe it though... women in general do seem to discriminate against unattractive men and attractive women - at least in my experience. A rationale here is obvious - they want to out compete the women and they do not desire unattractive men.
In their defense men do the same in reverse... esp treating attractive women with disproportionate respect and care to the point where with men and women in the same role - the more attractive women may end up doing significantly less work for the same pay, if they are doing anything truly productive - much to the annoyance of others. Its not their fault... I've seen this in every factory and warehouse type environment i've worked in. Nobody gets more annoyed about it than the 'average' looking girls who already work there and actually carry their weight and have to watch that guy they fancy covering for some dumb and unappreciative pretty girl with his efforts to sleep with her.
> Lastly, every major Hollywood studio was founded by Jewish people. Jews are massively over represented in films as directors, producers, writers, and actors.
Yes Jews are disproportionately successful, not just in Hollywood, and I believe their history has much to do with it as a much persecuted people and the long connection with banking as a religious loophole until relatively recently. IIRC Jews of european descent average higher IQ scores than any other ethnic group. Jews are smart.
I am an arab... so... eep! I shouldn't really say anything nice about Jews (j/k - i hope) :P
> The one thing that I dislike is when we use blame as a motivator to increase a gender's presence in an industry.
Thank you. :)
> A truly equal world would be one where women ran half our countries and companies and men ran half our homes
As an aside I somehow imagine the number of men thinking 'pfft women would screw that up' is massively outweighed by the number of women thinking 'pfft men would screw that up'. for women to have a stab at men in a sexist way is just the norm manflu! men are pigs! men are stupid! - and its part of the male ethos to take it and not complain. The other way round is considered a social faux pas...
