So women are now excluded from education like the olden days? Wtf?

Indeed .. why exactly would you think that?

Is this your thing is it, incorrectly framing what others write and then appending. Wtf?

You claim that STEM discriminates women today because of something that happened in 1890.

I would like to see some evidence of that related to today, not something from 1890. And not your empty statement of "what was once a pattern still persists to a lesser degree".

Maybe here is something you should read, which refers to the state as it is today: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender-equality_paradox#:~:tex....

> You claim that STEM discriminates women today because of something that happened in 1890.

No.

You claim that I made that claim.

I made no assertation of causal linkage, I merely pointed out a historic fact about the roots of modern education in the UK and US.

Your words:

> and what was once a pattern still persists to a lesser degree.

. . . and you read that as evidence of a causal relationship then?

And you'd like me to defend something that you see there?

This is your thing is it, framing what others say and then demanding they defend your reading?
