Re: So you are saying’ – an illustration of a dumb feminist getting schooled
Yes, based. On the partial transcript (which may have been cherry picked) the interviewer seems to misrepresent the guest.
I did have a problem with the following statement from the guest
”Peterson: If it means equality of outcome then it is almost certainly undesirable. That’s already been demonstrated in Scandinavia. Men and women won’t sort themselves into the same categories if you leave them to do it of their own accord. It’s 20 to 1 female nurses to male, something like that. And approximately the same male engineers to female engineers. That’s a consequence of the free choice of men and women in the societies that have gone farther than any other societies to make gender equality the purpose of the law. Those are ineradicable differences––you can eradicate them with tremendous social pressure, and tyranny, but if you leave men and women to make their own choices you will not get equal outcomes.”
His hypothesis is that Scandinavia has done enough to ERADICATE differences between genders opportunity wise. So since there women choose nursing and men engineering he is saying this is the case in actuality everywhere.
Some would contend Scandinavia while ahead may not have come close to eliminating opportunities. And history. Men and women have been exposed to what they have been doing for centuries, tough to turn it around in a nano second
