the feminist position is that observed differences stem from socialization, not biology. Not that no differences exist. Please be serious.

Fortunately there are decades of data and peer reviewed papers backing up the average differences and the position of evolutionary biology.

Okay, sure! But please address the argument that is being made. Vanishingly few feminists argue that there are "inherent" traits at play...

but rather that men and women have divergent experiences in our society that is heavily influenced by ideas about gender.

So her argument is...women are socialized to be less militaristic?

maybe! But usually the core argument of identity politics is intellectual humility, as such:

1. Experience constrains our ability to understand/theorize 2. We are better at leading those we understand

3. Therefore, men, for example, will do a less-good job leading women, all things being equal, than would another woman.
