Hi Sophia,
You are making a fundamental error in thinking as are many people with regard to Mr. Damore’s thoughts. You are talking about yourself as an individual. He is talking about populations. You cannot extrapolate anything specific about individuals when you talk about populations. You cannot extrapolate anything about populations when you talk about individuals. Damore is not advocating barring women from tech because they are all the same. What he is questioning is if the current path of setting a 50/50 balance as the ultimate goal is reasonable, sustainable (without continued artificial adjustment) or a balance that is in the best interests of the organization. He is not saying that it is not. He is saying that this question should be asked and that the assumptions of the left make it very difficult to ask these sorts of questions as they will not be well received. You have to admit he got that last part right.
