Systemic Sexism: Is it Real, and How Does it Work?
from Polymath · host Daniel Aaron Levy
Why do female, educated US university staff rate female job applicants as less competent and less likely to get hired? It's probably not that they're misogynist: let's go a little deeper.This is a 20 minute compression of a colossal psychological and sociological journey spanning 3 hours: Episode 25 of Polymath. In this 20 minute video, we strip away our society to its core and scientifically analyse its norms, structures, and beliefs. What does it mean to be a man? To be a woman? To be a human being? What makes a woman 'good'? Why, in fact, do people act the way they do? Why do different groups and demographics come into conflict?This video is not designed to push an agenda or make you think a certain way: we don't do that here. If you don't believe that systemic sexism exists, that's fine- you don't have to. Just watch the video and if you disagree with it, you have the freedom to do so: just don't close yourself off to other views. And remember- for the mountain of evidence which I don't have to time to address in this video, check out Episode 25 here https://open.spotify.com/episode/7tKa3m6PHbboR8qJolsDIl?si=42ac9591750b42fd.
