>>11267912>Is this due to genetics? Or does human society prevent females from editing Wikipedia?I think most feminists would insist on largely the latter. The standard argument is that women are explicitly, implicitly and/or subversively hindered and/or discouraged from certain pursuits from a young age. When The same is said for men, but the pursuits differ. Thus gender differences in pursuits is supposedly rooted in mere tradition. Research however indicates otherwise for most steretypical gendered pursuits (see "Hjernevask"). That is, the more free women are to choose, the more stereotypically feminine their pursuits become. Whether the pursuit of editing wikipedia adheres to this trend is in my view very likely. Women have done better than men in school for decades (if not longer (?), but I cannot find data on it), thus they should seemingly be even better equipped than men at editing wikipedia, a pursuit that have existed for only the last 18 years. Both women and men have always been equally free to edit wikipedia, at least in the most explicit sense. If I am correct, then to get more women to edit wikipedia we must precisely do what the feminists complain about, make women less free to choose to NOT edit wikipedia.
