I've only heard that they want more female faculty, no matter what.I can’t hear this anymore. This sounds like there is zero chance for men to get in, that is just not true. Standard pathetic excuse for lousy post docs that don’t get any job offers.
Most postdocs get offers.

They had several official "female only" positions this year, so...
At the end, academic potential should decide who gets the positions. If you are arguing that the academic potential of females is higher just because they are female then I would call that sexism. I am waiting for the s**tstorm to hit me, but this trend of weird feminism will eventually fade out, as has been the case with any weird trend in the past.

Haven't we gone over this already? It isn't a binary or corner solution, that this only holds true if NO MEN GET POSITIONS. It's a weird logical fallacy to say that women aren't favoured if a man somewhere, anywhere, gets a position. Especially since there is perhaps a lower number of women available/credentialed/qualified for a particular position (of course, you'd probably cry sexism about that as well - which it might be, or it might be preferences).
But there is undeniably a push to get more women to the exclusion of men, meaning that a woman may be less of a perfect fit or even be far less right for the job on any number of metrics but will get preferential treatment.
I find it stunning that an economist doesn't know anything about matching, incentives, or the margins!
In a couple decades this era will be seen as chronic stagnation, based on an ideology instead of a merit. No legacy whatsoever, unfortunately.

I can say that 99.9% of the women I have seen being hired a really strong researchers and good teachers and fully deserve their position. When I hear the complaints about the unfair advantages of women in the hiring process, I see these women before my eyes and wonder whether the complainant lives in a completely different world.

And then they hired TH on TT W1. And he is neither Austrian, nor female.

Why does this contradict the argument that the selection is tilted towards ideology rather than merit? I also hope you haven't spent a single hour studying economics; that would have been quite a waste of time.
