How would women react if men were to say the lack of female representation in STEM is “self-imposed”

To be fair, people are saying this all the time. Look up a Lemmy post about struggles of women. Ok, that was a rhetoric task because you won't find any with a significant amount of upvotes. But if you do on another platform, there will be plenty of people arguing that women should care for this themselves. Or discussing how bad it is for men, instead.

Yeah, no. I haven’t heard this rhetoric since 2018.
