Women in Science: Biological Factors Should Not Be Ignored

Authors

Kingsley R. Browne, Wayne State University Law School

Abstract

The article argues that biological and psychological differences between sexes contribute to the underrepresentation of women in certain fields, challenging the assumption that equal representation is always the appropriate goal. It critiques the notion that disparities necessarily indicate systemic flaws, emphasizing that freedom of choice should allow for different occupational outcomes without implying discrimination.
