Hearing this type of thing infuriates me because in the end society loses, giving women more and more privilege rather than best for the job isnt going to rnd well

In a statement to Nature, NAS president Marcia McNutt says that the NAS does not reserve a set number of places in each year’s election for female scientists or other under-represented researchers.

This is called affirmative action... In other words, they are discriminating against men.
