QUIZ When Sweden promoted gender equality, what happened?
- Women made advances in STEM professions
- More men wanted to become nurses
- The policies had very little effect
- They strongly chose typical gender professions
- They did it all wrong, so it failed
No matter policy or protests, group-specific policy management leads to systemic failure. The focus must be on enforcing equality of opportunity, based on merit, talent, and objectives. Any report promoting group-specific outcomes is bad statistics and yields bad results.
When given the choice in Sweden, even with major incentives to do otherwise, women became even more dominant in choosing nursing, while men became even stronger in choosing engineering.
Equality of opportunity is systemically healthy… equality of outcome is bad science and bad governance.
Answer: #4 - They strongly chose typical gender professions
