Dudes. All dudes. Not a woman in sight. Well, once we know the algorithm of the human (likely) male brain, we can begin to fix those brains where that algorithm has gone awry.
这一评论挑战了神经科学研究的普遍假设，暗示当前研究可能过度集中在男性大脑上，而忽视了性别差异。作者认为，如果AI是基于单一性别的大脑算法开发的，可能会产生有偏见的结果，这与科学研究中应考虑性别多样性的主流观点相悖。
First, although the National Institutes of Health (NIH) now emphasizes the need to include women and female animals in clinical research [e.g., 57], decades of research on the topics reviewed herein have been conducted using only men and male animals.
The participants in both the 2018 and the retracted 2023 studies were recruited from online communities that were explicitly critical about many aspects of gender-affirming care for transgender kids.
whether he knows it or not, the intellec-tual workman forms his own self as he works towards theperfection of his craft.
Here Mills seems to be defining (in 1952) an "intellectual workman" as an academic, but he doesn't go as broad as a more modern "knowledge worker" (2022) which includes those who broadly do thinking in industry as well as in academia. His older phrase also has a more gendered flavor to it that knowledge worker doesn't have now.
The study’s authors suggest that this discrepancy may emerge fromdifferences in boys’ and girls’ experience: boys are more likely to play withspatially oriented toys and video games, they note, and may become morecomfortable making spatial gestures as a result. Another study, this oneconducted with four-year-olds, reported that children who were encouraged togesture got better at rotating mental objects, another task that draws heavily onspatial-thinking skills. Girls in this experiment were especially likely to benefitfrom being prompted to gesture.
The gender-based disparity of spatial thinking skills between boys and girls may result from the fact that at an early age boys are more likely to play with spatially oriented toys and video games. Encouraging girls to do more spatial gesturing at an earlier age can dramatically close this spatial thinking gap.
When hiring managers believed a woman had children because “Parent-Teacher Association coordinator appeared on her resume, she was 79% less likely to be hired. If she was hired, she would be offered an average of $11,000 less in salary.
I recall when learning how to do interviews once, the person who was helping me made a comment along the lines of -
one of the things I look for is an engagement ring, as it's a sign that they are getting married soon - and want the job just to get mat leave
I remember being rather shocked by that statement, and I didn't speak up about it at that time directly - although did push back against it a bit, but it's one of those memories that really stood out as 'wow, that is kind of messed up'
Someone from another department incorrectly assumes that the man on your team is the leader. Gently correct the assumption and underscore your leader’s accomplishments. For example, “[Name] is our team lead. She heads all our biggest sales efforts.”
I've seen this happen before - assuming that the male is the leader, or the one that had the idea - and can diminish the recognition of the right people.
Correcting this on the spot can be done quickly
No tech team or web guy needed!There are no complicated steps or approvals from managers and your IT department when it comes to marketing your podcast.
This seems painfully gendered. RadioPublic could do better.
Student evaluations of teachers are notoriously biased against women, with women routinely receiving lower scores than their male counterparts.
I recall some work on this sort of gender bias in job recommendations as well. Remember to dig it up for reference as well.

strategy to diminish gender bias in the peer review process. Suggesting female and young scientist when a male reviewer declines invitation to review.
It’s another example of “male as default”—the idea that men are a ”neutral” category, with women in a separate, non-default, and markedly different one.
One major example of gender differences in VR is that women are far more susceptible to VR-induced nausea.
(Let me stress “gender” there. I can’t but notice that this list, much like the list of those on the education speaking circuit today, is full of men.)
