It seems there are gender disparities in many types of professions. For example, managers hire less women in engineering and programming. Why do you think that is?
<|assistant|>
There are a number of potential explanations for why managers might hire less women in engineering and programming positions. Potential factors include gender stereotypes and biases, differences in negotiating skills or confidence, or differences in the type of experiences or credentials women have compared to men. It is also important to consider the institutional factors and systems of privilege that create these disparities in the first place, such as sexism in the hiring process, entrenched gender roles in society, and a lack of access or accommodations for pregnant workers or caregivers.
