Thanks for explaining your perspective does this actually change the fact they were treated differently and therefore are undeniably the product of survivor bias?

I don't really think they or anyone serving in Soviet Army in rank below colonel or so at that time was treated as anything but cannon fodder.

Thank you for you input, Dima. Sexism is now cancelled. Everybody, step down, no more feminism needed!

Pretty sure it doesn't and in fact women are hideously raped in war in ways unimaginable.

The USSR is not known as being "feminist" during war time. So please fuck off with your "war ends sexism" Soviet-sexism-apologetics. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_during_the_occupation_of_Germany …

It would be lovely if you didn't reply to threads I'm in, as you have been more than once, to tell me what a great partner, great traveller and dad and whatever the fuck else you are. I couldn't care less and you just crossed a major line with your BS this time.

If you think the USSR is less sexist than the UK, there have been many studied into this. I also come from a part of the world that superficially seems less sexist. However, the real story is much more depressing and interesting than Cyprus and the USSR are less sexist.

Lera Boroditsky @leraboroditskyGrowing up in the Soviet Union I never heard that girls weren’t supposed to be good at math. New paper compares girls math performance in East & West Germany & shows how changing cultural gender expectations can transform performance. https://www.iza.org/publications/dp/11532/math-girls-and-socialism …1 reply 0 retweets 2 likes -

Olivia Guest | Ολίβια Γκεστ @o_guestReplying to @manes @leraboroditsky @barner_ucsdYes, I grew up in Cyprus. Basic no gender related to maths specifically, but men /boys assumed to be better at everything. So it's (sadly) freeing in a way, women suck at everything, so might as well do maths (in my case compsci) .

Anyway, your apologetics for war and the USSR during war are creepy AF.

You have attached a feminist spin onto something that does not have much to do with it. And tried to defend this spin in an unconvincing way, too. Besides, wars are hell, and USSR was hell, too, I have no clue where you found in my tweets an apology for them.

"As Allied troops entered and occupied German territory during the later stages of World War II, mass rapes took place both in connection with combat operations and during the subsequent occupation." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_during_the_occupation_of_Germany …
