Ask any married man. A wife will drag up empirical evidence to show what a doofus her husband is at the drop of a hat. No need for reference books - she will drag out something from months ago from memory.

The professors argue that the emphasis on "meritocracy," "individualism," and "technical prowess" in engineering all contribute to a "masculine culture" that marginalizes women.
Thanks Eurotwit. IOW, these professors are not fit to teach, and they prefer education to reward by gender, as long as the gender is female. Should have seen this coming when STEM becamse an alleged priority under Obama.

These concessions to “victims” have aggravated racial and gender problems because even when we give unearned diplomas, degrees, and certificates to “preferred minorities” and women, they quickly find that in the workforce they have little value - as they have little to offer an employer. Rather than denounce the sham educations, they denounce the job market and employers...who are then required by threat of lawsuit to hire them. Wealth transfers and window dressing, nothing more. I’ve worked with some bright women and minorities - but have noticed a strange trend where retiring old white guys are being replaced by TWO of these tokens at a clip - and still underperforming. They simply reach out tot he retirees’ peers, trying to reconstruct how he did his job.

The charade is exposed when you see women in unearned, unmerited positions refusing to hire men. It is beyond simple gender warfare - they are deathly afraid of losing their jobs to better-qualified workers. I’ve seen quite a few older women who hire friends and acquaintances, so whole departments are staffed by older white women who will all reach retirement age within a short time of each other. The fact that management allows this shows how little regard is given the whole department; no contingency exists for those retirements, and when they are gone the company will just start over with new talent - the talent these ageing, tired female managers will NEVER hire.

I wonder if this marxist professor would go to a surgeon who did not earn their medical license based on individual merit?

Great point. I pray the future standard for science and engineering involves something other than stating for the record “There are more than two genders” and yet I expect political affinity will be the deciding factor on who is designated as “employable” and “competent” in the living hell the left dreams of for the future.

Perhaps, but a commitment to empirical science is required if you don’t want your bridge to collapse.

diversity is not a virtue

And, compromise is failure.

I wonder if the just-collapsed bridge in FL was designed by "engineers" educated with this madness.

For years, crazy feminists complained that the design of rockets was sexist because they are phallic. I responded that once they successfully fly a vagina-shaped rocket, I will accept their point.

“I am literally lost for words...”

I’m not, IDIOCRACY is a documentary. I think that covers it.
