James Damore was one of the engineers with which Google designs its algorithms since December 2013. Recently I sent a 3,000 word letter to the address explaining why in your opinion there is an underrepresentation of women in technology and direction.

First, to reject discrimination and seek rationality in the debate:

"I value diversity and inclusion , I am not denying that sexism exists and does not support the use of stereotypes. (...) If we can not have an honest discussion about this, we can never really solve the problem "

In his view, biological differences also mark psychological differences and therefore, vital interests:

"The choices and capabilities of men and women diverge, largely because of biological causes, and these differences may explain why there is no equal representation of women (in positions) of leadership .... They focus more on feelings and Aesthetics rather than ideas "

In conclusion, the fact that women have more capacity to empathize makes them focus on social or artistic careers. While the focus of men on ideas makes them focus on careers as computer science.

Your conclusion?

"I hope it is clear that I am not saying that diversity is bad, that Google or society are already 100% fair, or that we should not try to correct existing biases ... I am going to show an intolerance towards Ideas and evidences that do not conform to a certain ideological framework . [...] Nor do I propose that we should restrict people to certain gender roles; In fact I hold rather the opposite: that we treat them as individuals and not just as another member of their social group "

Vice President of Diversity, Integrity and Governance Google, Danielle Brown, replied:

"It is not a point of view that I, or this company, we share"

Damore responds:

"The points of view is the most important type of diversity, so we should give more power to those who have a different ideology and want to express"

Brown sentence:

"Part of building an open and inclusive environment involves fostering a culture in which those with alternative views, including different political opinions, feel safe sharing their opinions. But that discourse needs to be in line with the principles of equality of employment found in our Code of Conduct "

Finally engineer James Damore was fired . To contradict the ideological positioning of the company.

Now write to Google and show your complaint
