foobarbazbat··on Diversity quotas suck. Here’s why
Agree. The woman has shown more consistency and is a better candidate. But if we swapped male for female in this example, I think it would change a lot of people's thinking, and they would lean towards the female dropout.

This is the problem we have today.

The problem is that institutional bias and discrimination are unmeasurable. So dropping the quotas never seems like a reality.

Quotas are inherently unfair and take opportunity away from others.

Isn't it better to treat people as individuals?
