Places without all the gender confusion and militant feminism like the home of marie curie, Poland, produce far higher percentages of female stem majors than the good ole feminist USA.
Probably because serious science and math majors are needed for the economy while we get feminist inspired crap like "womens studies" and tons of left wing garbage "social sciences" and these so called "strong independent" western feminists that suffer breakdowns at the use of sweetheart.
It doesnt surprise me so many eastern european countries also still have a much stronger sense of masculinity than the west and arent as accepting of the refugee and immigration invasion as an increasingly emasculated west

Or because the culture of these countries is such that men are more accepting of women in the sciences and women who want to go into STEM fields aren't belittled, harassed and scorned for "trying to act like men" as many are here in the good ole misogynistic USA.

Oh yes there are far more male feminists in Russia and Poland than in america, especially american academia. lol. You dont get any more emasculated and leftist than the world of american academia

Wouldn't traditional gender roles disqualify women from working in those fields.
Where did the chart come from and who is Claire Leahmann that we should take notice of her twitter?

Who said they were male feminists? I said they were males who were more accepting of women in the sciences. Lots of men are in the USA, but lots are believers that women aren't suited to roles in science and those are the ones who discourage their daughters from pursuing STEM studies and make the lives of their female coworkers unpleasant every day.
They may get more tech degrees but what is the workplace culture like for them in those countries? Maybe they just put up with a lot of bs like we used to.
Chicks can't program either. I've hear that for the last 35 years. It's sad that some women who started programming when I did in the early 80s got fed up with dealing with the Good Ole Boys Network and found other ways to make a living. Until women are welcomed in the sciences and stay in those role, there are few to act as role models for the next generation.
I have a daughter who is in the Biotech field. Her experiences have for the most part been positive so I do have hope that more women will find the sciences a good place to be. She did have a few comical run ins with guys who thought a tall, blonde, blue eyed college girl needed their assistance in her Chem classes. One even started sitting next to her and tried to chat her up by offering to tutor her before the first organic chem exam because he was "good" at chemistry. She aced the test and he failed. He never sat with her again which was just fine with her.

That's what I'm wondering.
I'd love to see the entire report. Context can be everything. It may not be a problem that we are seeing this chart out of context. Or it may be a big problem.
I'm especially wondering whether countries ..."w/ more traditional gender roles are MORE likely to major in math & stem not less" include majority muslim countries. And I wonder whether it's still true here in the US that women attending women's colleges do better in STEM fields than women attending co-ed colleges.
