  Do you honestly not get it, or are you just trying to push back against a message you don’t like?

    I don’t get it. The US has many women professors, not just associate and assistant professors. The comment implies that Finland is saying the US is no longer having women as professors. What am I missing?

      You’re missing the fact that currently in many states in the US, a Tesla has more civil rights than a woman, and it’s bullshit.

        I’m pretty sure there is not one single professor that is a Tesla, so I don’t know what that comment was about.

        What civil right does a woman not have? Honest question.

      Here is a recent Lemmy post highlighting some of the issues that women common face in academia in US universities. It’s largely about inclusivivity. Lots of good progress has been made in recent times to fix problems of that type, but there is still some way to go.

      Unfortunately, the new US president is strongly against that kind of progress. He has gone out of his way to roll back and block anything that might look like an inclusivity boosting program. Quite clearly, the USA is now moving backwards in these issues.

      So that’s what the comment in the post is about. Note that we’re just reading some random guy’s off-hand comment about an advertisement. So it isn’t an in-depth analysis. It’s a highly simplified message. But I hope you can at least see what we’re talking about.

        I get the issues that some women get flack from others for being a woman in particular fields. But the US does have many women professors. The comment above the ad insinuates that the US doesn’t, and that the University of Finland is trying to capitalize on that. I still don’t get it.

  If all the professors had left already who would they be advertising to? Don’t hurt your brain thinking too much about that.
