I want to start out by pointing that I&#x27;m generally in agreement with your points.<p>I urge you to consider that aggregate statistics are not individual experiences. It is a totally normal, expected outcome that there are individual men who have had deeply unfair experiences based on their gender. The fact that &#x27;overall&#x27; men have better experiences will be cold comfort to such people. While in aggregate we tend to encourage men&#x2F;boys to play chess, and as such there are a lot of competitive men, an individual man&#x2F;boy may have a very different experience. Telling that one man&#x2F;boy that overall men have it better in this scenario (and others) just won&#x27;t be compelling. That&#x27;s why I tend to argue that we should consider these incentives. It&#x27;s a group-modification action, not an individual-modification. But understanding this may help you to have compassion for people who, for whatever reason, are blind to the &#x27;tipping of the scales&#x27; that you mention.<p>Good luck.
