In the past, gender discrepancy was justified just as glibly as ageism is now. People said almost exactly the same nonsense then: women just got married, they moved to other fields, this particular poll is biased (never mind they all show the same trend), they quit to raise children. In the ageism case, someone even ludicrously suggested retirement before 40 accounts for a significant percentage Ageism is indeed a very serious problem and the same personality types that didn't want to fix bias problems in the past are resisting addressing the age problem with equal vigor today. |
