That doesn't count as gender bias. Gender bias is when the system discriminates against women. When it does the same against men, it's equity.

Assumed /s but yes that seems to be the (re)definition they're using.
Are you being sarcastic, or serious?
I think it’s both.

In my field for instance, if you are a woman, you get to skip the review line for publishing case reports.

Luckily for me I don’t give a shit about case reports, but if I was academically oriented? Maybe I would.

Doesn't seem equitable to me.
