Extremely weak article for 538.<p>It talks about how &gt; 50% of bachelor degrees in STEM are earned by women(according to the NSF). Then it talks about how ~39% of STEM jobs are held by women(according to a different org with probably different standards - the ACS).<p>Why don&#x27;t they care about the great injustice being perpetrated against men by women earning more than their fair share of degrees in a field? Why don&#x27;t they account for the differences in bookkeeping between the NSF and the ACS?<p>Why doesn&#x27;t it compare these numbers and the degree-to-work dropoff to other non-STEM fields?<p>Then it talks about &quot;27 percent said they find their careers stalling due to workplace sexism&quot;. Why don&#x27;t they talk about how that number relates to other fields? Or how it relates to mens numbers for the same question in the same field? Or the same question in different fields.
