LMAO, OP. Who is going to read the word salad you just vomited up?
Learn english, m0ron.
ECB: Men need not apply
-
Look at
- top journal new associate editor appointments
- appointments to NBER and CEPR
- PhD admissions
- new assistant professor hires, especially at top schools
Compare female and male professors. Draw conclusions.MIT sorts PhD applications by race and gender. Half of the slots go to men and half go to women, although men outnumber women by 3x in the application pool. I am sure they're not alone either.
This kind of thinking is just dumbfoundingly asinine. From our supposed intellectual elites, at that.

With that information alone, there's nothing to be outraged about. What we need to know if what are the average GRE scores, GPAs, and undergraduate college ranks of male applicants vs women. After all, it's not inconceivable that male applicants are more optimistic about their chances.
(Anecdotally, while I don't know about men vs women, I find that the average American applicant reaches during application way more than internationals. You'll have a pile of international resumes with IMOs side by side with a pile of University of Alabama 2.5 GPAs)MIT sorts PhD applications by race and gender.

BS, you cannot apply to a PhD at MIT w/o serious cover letter. Do you think that most of men are overconfident bros with a Master in business mgmt from the Free University of Islamabad? You are delusional if you think that's the case.

Nothing stopping you from applying without cover letter

Welcome to the real world. You better not speak up about this, unless you'd like to be canceled. You can thank the spineless senior members of the profession who don't have the courage stand up to this.
If the imbalance is greatest at older ages, why aren't we paying for early retirement instead?

And you think you won't be filtered out?

Hiring more women only affects "quality" if scholarship done by the women being considedred is worse than scholarship done by pools of male candidates.
OP, do you believe that scholarship done by women is worse than scholarship done by men? Is that what you are saying?

If it makes you feel better, here a true story about recruitment at the IMF.
We opened a campaign to recruit for an economist position in my division. My boss just wanted the best guy. We had the campaign, and an Italian white guy with a US PhD and very relevant professional experience for us (I won't give too many details) was ranked first. Candidates 2 and 3 were also white Western males, 4 and 5 were guys from emerging markets, and only candidate 6 was the first female. My boss said ok, the Italian guy aced both the technical and behavioral interviews, we will make an offer to him.
Our HR department refused to issue the offer, told us "you already have too many white males in your division, your division is way below in terms of quotas, you can't hire him". We had to close the campaign, open a new one where we only shortlisted only female candidates for the interviews. And we ended up hiring a female candidate from an emerging market (the number 6 of the previous campaign who was not even shortlisted in the last campaign).
The new female economist is now struggling to get the job done in my division, as she doesn't have the right skillset nor professional experience that the Italian guy has. The situation is so bad that my boss asked me to take over some of her responsibilities as she can't manage basic stuff. We assigned a mentor to her, put her on some training, etc. but she is catching up very slowly, putting a lot of extra pressure on the capable colleagues, who happen to be white men...
So ECB is bad, but don't forget that before the ECB, Lagarde was at the IMF and she got brainwashed with the US ideology. Hence, the worst for you is yet to come...

You’re part of the problem, “fostering diversity” or merit, choose one
I do believe that we need to foster diversity in the field, but not at the cost of discriminating against young scholars who are not responsible for how the field….Why am I being excluded from working for or even presenting at the ECB based on my gender?
Exactly. Were OP a senior, he would be one of the co/wards that do absolutely nothing and just watch the field turn into sociology. If you're concerned with minorities or disadvantage people you should be pushing for policies that shrink the disadvantage like good public education instead of turning academic institutions into charities where you hire people because they belong to certain demographic group.

Wanted to write this same thing. OP, you kind of deserve it. You are part of the problem. Pick your side, fostering diversity or fostering equal treatment of all.

People like you always say the seniors should do something. So what exactly should we do? Make a statement on Twitter and say that anti-white-male discrimination is taking over and it's unfair? Just to be cancelled and ridiculed by the mob, possibly risking getting fired despite tenure for being "r@cist"? Or should we contact search committees and protest against their short list, which will have exactly zero effect other than making enemies in the department? I got my fingers burned once for saying something that upset the w0ke crowd, and the chair told me to apologize to them. Do you seriously expect me to end the 20 years I put into this career for younger people I haven't even met? How about the younger people who have nothing to lose yet up their game and protest? That would be way more effective, and I'm happy to provide support when possible.

Every single person reading this can see what a coward you are.

LOL you have to be kidding. So younger people, that is, random ph.d. students with zero leverage or ridiculously busy APs who are not protected by tenure should be the ones to speak up? What is your tenure for if you're so scared of using it? Just don't be such a w/uss maybe. If you don't want to be so public about it, yes make enemies in your department. They made you their enemies before that, and they are not afraid to make that very clear if you don't shvt up and obey. Of course, one guy alone will probably not achieve a lot more than getting into trouble. This is about seniors in general.

I hope you are just a troll.
