The Bitter Fruits of Egalitarianism

By Diana from NoodleFood,cross-posted by MetaBlog

This article -- "Why Can't a Woman Be More Like a Man? by Christina Hoff Sommers -- is a fascinating article on the disturbing attempt to inject sexual egalitarian politics into math, science, and engineering education.

From what I've seen in academia over the years, the liberal-egalitarian push for "diversity" in race, sex, orientation, and the like at the expense of the science opens the door for conservative-religious demands for "diversity" of viewpoints at the expense of the science. The results are bad all-around.
