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?

There are a variety of factors that can contribute to gender disparities in the workforce, such as the gender wage gap, limited access to job opportunities, and workplace bias. Additionally, certain industries can perpetuate a cultuure of masculinity that excludes or discourages women from seeking out certain types of career. Moreover, gender stereotypes can play a role in discouraging girls and women from pursuing certain courses of study and careers. For example, many girls and women are unaware of opportunities and career paths in programming and engineering.
