> they thought his suggestions were offensive

Not only were they offensive, they had no grounding in reality and made it impossible for many people there to work with or trust him.

and here we go -- it wasnt an academic paper but it was completely based on facts. biologically, men and women are different, and they think differently and so no matter how much society and culture impacts you, that biology will ever so slightly bias every decision in your life and may be part of the mismatch in representation between genders.

the idea that females and males LIKE different things and its IN PART based on biology, is completely real and valid and not offensive in the slightest.

So you know that it's entirely possible to write something that's "based on facts" -- with nice diagrams and all! -- yet when we consider the whole cloth of what's being said, it turns out to be fatally flawed -- and basically a load of tripe?

That's what this "manifesto" was.

i summarized it right there, what part do you think is flawed?

if you're saying men/women think identically, then there is even no reason for gender diversity because it only becomes physical differences at that point, do you realize that?
