Sexism, god help us (5 Viewers)

It's like saying the reason there are more black men in prison is because they are naturally more inclined to be violent and carry out violent acts because of there genetics and the reason why there are less black men in college is because they cant be educated they don't have the ability to be educated because of there genetics
,Is that blunt enough for you egg ?
It's blunt, but that doesn't mean you're right. A wrong argument based on genetics doesn't mean that all arguments based on genetics are wrong.

Would you say that the reason there are more men in prison than women is that men are more inclined to be violent than women because of their genetics? Again, I don't know the answer, but it's not exactly hard to believe now is it?

I think socialisation trumps genetics in these, and most, situations. The very idea of prison isn't genetics, it's a social thing. Good science is beholden to ideas anyway since it's just unbiased data right? But I'm open to other arguments.
