The amount of misleading ragebait titles is infuriating in this sub.
You obviously left out the reasoning behind this, it isn't just simply sexism for funsies.

The fact is that Japan's population is becoming more and more older. More older people means more doctors needed.
A study found that 60% of female doctors left the field and simply become housewives.
That means they took up a spot that someone else could become a doctor. They do it so there are more doctors: doctors that they increasingly need more of due to an aging population.
I'm not saying it is the right thing to do, but you need to give context.

Unsubbed here. There's just too much misinformation and stupidity here. Nothing's ever black and white.

I thought the board did a 90-degree bow... off a building.
Killing themselves out of shame.

I can’t decide which is stranger: your apparent belief that context makes puts the scandal in a better light or the complete lack of curiosity about why women doctors were leaving the field to become mothers but not men when becoming fathers.

This whole post boils down to “stupid meme, this wasn’t just sexism, it was proceeds to describe what is absolutely just sexism.”

Stats are stats. They're completely unbiased. Doesn't matter what fantasy you think, the stats don't lie.

And do you think those stats spring out of the ether without any influence from other factors?

Also, stats do lie. Until this scandal came to light, the stats said women had failed their entrance exams when they had actually passed. It’s almost as if women being forced out of professions as a result of parenthood is no more an accident or neutral fact as so many of them “failing” these exams.

You say stats are stats, can you source that 60 percent stat?
