Idk who needs to hear this but quantitative methodologies are not “unbiased” or “objective”. Everything from the measures you choose to include or NOT include, as well as the variables/constructs you control for (or choose to not pay attention to), expose your biases.

If we’re serious about opening academia to non-white folks, we need to start paying undergrad RAs. Very few can afford to volunteer 15+ hours per week with a full courseload and (rapidly rising) rent payments. Statements of solidarity are nice, but don’t open the door.

Friendly neighborhood biologist here. I see a lot of people are talking about biological sexes and gender right now. Lots of folks make biological sex sex seem really simple. Well, since it’s so simple, let’s find the biological roots, shall we? Let’s talk about sex...[a thread]
