In fact, the existence of vertical stratification causes horizontal stratification. Women leave fields like finance and engineering where bias is strongest because they cannot get ahead as easily as male peers. This causality also confirmed in studies.

I'm sure we can both find studies where women say contradictory things. So much depends what you're looking for & how you interpret it. Eg, prominent scientists saying no sexism proves entrenched sexism.https://twitter.com/hpluckrose/status/825828435683581953 …
