This confuses me. There seem to be certain personality traits associated with gender beyond standard stereotypes. Why is it a bad thing for a manager/owner to employ specific talents or personality traits in accomplishing an objective?Gender is just one component that makes a person who they are, and is observable.
This is not an argument in favor of disparity of wages, but rather an argument in favor of disparity of deployment based on expected performance conditional on known attributes.
I didn't read that in this article. I thought the data was showing that even in roles where that were more male or female dominated, there was either no difference in how effective the people were seen to be at their roles (or the women were seen as more effective).
