> Based on what I've heard and read online, this is quite different from how it is in the US specifically, where gender inequality in STEM fields is a big deal.

1:5 sounds like gender inequality to me.

I meant women in STEM mate. I thought that was clear from context, and I mentioned the problem in the US in the same sentence.

What they are saying is that a 5:1 gender ratio can't be equal, whichever way around it is.

Not sure why this got downvoted. Gender inequality goes both ways.

Maybe by many standards 1:5 ratio sounds great and all, but such a huge difference is a problem and university should research why males are not going towards those jobs/professions.
