    Gay men are perceived as more suitable for feminine managerial positions than heterosexual men and as equally suitable for masculine leadership functions - adding up to a net pro-gay bias. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11199-018-0894-8 …pic.twitter.com/Jp8gnbwfdH

        #WTF? So? How about the company that needs a manager personally interviews the applicants and hires the most experienced? All this other crap is just that.

        I'm sorry but it's to me as if you just sampled your words from a model that's not yet converged. And it still does not provide a concrete example.

        Can anyone explain what a 'feminine managerial position' is? Sounds like Reverse Cowgirl

        This doesn't make any sense. What is a male leadership position? It's also unfounded to talk about pro bias, given prior information, without any context on how this subspace of jobs relates to all possible. Or even within that subspace, how "male" vs "female" jobs rank.
