Why do inequalities persist between male and female scientists, when the causes are well-researched and widely condemned? In part, because equality has many dimensions. Presenting eight definitions of gender equality, we show each is important but incomplete. Rigid application of any single equality indicator can therefore have perverse outcomes.
为什么在原因已经得到充分研究并广受谴责的情况下,男性和女性科学家之间仍然存在不平等现象?部分原因在于平等有许多层面。通过提出八项性别平等的定义,我们表明每一项都很重要但并不完整。因此,严格应用任何单一的平等指标都可能产生适得其反的结果。
