To employers and hiring managers only: Tell me, honestly, whether you weigh the sex of a possible employee when making a hiring decision. If so, why? Also, what is it that men in general possess that, to me, appears to give them the edge?

I frequently hire for mid-level technical positions. 95% of my applicants are males. Honestly, I would have to say that I give more weight to a male applicant given everything else is equal with a female applicant. 1. I prefer working with males. 2. Women require different management techniques and are, in general, too emotional. 3. I also feel that men are more reliable employees, they take fewer sick days, have fewer child care issues and don’t get pregnant.
