This is actually from 2022, but I missed it back in the day. This is quite important research imo, and very relevant lately. Link to the paper itself: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0747563222001637

In my experience, most first year undergraduate courses for STEM related degrees more or less match the demographics of the university itself.

I don't know anything about other STEM fields or other countries, but where I live, most sw engineering courses don't have above 5%. (And I guess even fewer men in the medicine field. Some fields just seem to attract specific genders, idk why.)

But yeah, dismiss reality I have seen with my own eyes as "The dog whistles! The dog whistles!" And then act surprised when no one outside your echo chamber takes you seriously.
