We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.
A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

Yes, well I do think more efforts could be made earlier on in the journey from education to getting a job to ensure that everyone gets their fair chance, but even then, there will still be hiring biases and other factors in play.
I had to check which community these comments were in, I happened to stumble on it on the "all" section of my app (I would not subscribe to this community, probably too political and toxic for my taste and not my cup of tea). I've checked the posts on this community and it seems very skewed towards not wanting inclusion and equality.. maybe for some of the same reasons I have mentioned but for which people might not take a few minutes or days to think it through.
I think it's nice that you're engaging in seeking differing views and maybe challenging a few of them. You seem very respectful, it's great.
I think your question on "why don't more women pursue an education in X" is so complex and has too many nuances for a simple answer. I'd like to think it's simply a preference, but I'm (very) probably wrong and there's many reasons making it difficult or unattractive to pursue. There's probably not enough role models to look up to, also.
