CraigMcLennanMemberUnsurprisingly, yes. While women are slowly overcoming this, it's still a major issue for feminists, which sadly isn't being tackled with the same fervor that the ongoing "woman/wymmin/womyn/wimmin" battle is.User Detail :

MaraParticipantit's been well documented in blind studies that assigning gender affects perception. In one particular study, subjects are shown a report. Half are told it was written by a man and the other half that it was written by a woman. Without exception, the report by the female received a lower score for professionalism, quality of work, and subject knowlege than the report written by the man. The thing is...it was the SAME report.User Detail :
