This is what a person was fired and then named and shamed for? You're joking, right?

Right, so this is what the guy from Google was fired for writing. I'm failing to see him as a sexist. I don't agree 100% with everything he says, but he is definitely not sexist. The actual bit that he wrote starts with the first grey box in the article. I think I managed to pinpoint how far most people who started writing articles about how sexist he is started seeing red too and that would be right about here:
After reading and seeing the response to this memo, I'm left wondering how many people actually read it before posting about it and writing articles about it.

He questioned authority, they dumped him. That's the corporate world for you.

As for articles deeming him as sexist, he does carry that stench of male elitism. Whether that is the case or not, I wouldn't put stock in him since biological differences is his go to criticism. It seems lazy to have this as his basis when there are other arguments to be made.

@Jackaloftheazuresand I agree he could have touched on more arguments, but how venomously the left reacts to even entertaining the idea that men and women have biological differences is inexcusable in my opinion.

@Jackaloftheazuresand Yeah, the Vice President of Diversity, Integrity & Governance is in charge of truth castration.

He should have known that.

@AnInfamousDerka I have read a pile of research on both cognitive and physical differences between male and female brains. Most of which is laying around in college libraries collecting dust.

Adjusted for total brain size (men’s are bigger), a woman’s hippo­campus which is critical to learning and memorization, is larger than a man’s and works differently.

Conversely, a man’s amygdala, associated with the experiencing of emotions and the recollection of such experiences, is bigger than a woman’s.

The fact that women are less emotionally adept and that man are more elitist in their behavior is profoundly ironic. As is the fact that the bell curves of intellectual comparisons of men and women being inversely weighted (women's in the center average and men at the extreme ends) is, to me, an obscene deception.
