It would seem to me that the issue that the "postmodern feminists" have with science is that they think the methodology of science itself is "biased"; it would also seem to me that this is a far cry from the concept of "bias" in a field which is typically defined by the ratio of male to female *individuals* working int hat field. It seems to me that postmoder feminists are attacking the idea, the methodology, of science, not an imbalance of the numbers of individuals within the field of "scientist".Andiferous said:That said, there has been sex bias observed in the fields like medical study in the past, and there are arguments over whether or not this still exists today; but from what I can tell, this isn't really the kind of thing the article is saying.
