tl;dr "prestige" academia claims sexism against women is everywhere:
> In the most prestigious journals and media outlets, which influence many people’s opinions about sexism, bias is frequently portrayed as an omnipresent factor limiting women’s progress in the tenure-track academy
in reality it is systematically sexist against men:
> our findings show that tenure-track women are at parity with tenure-track men in three domains (grant funding, journal acceptances, and recommendation letters) and are advantaged over men in a fourth domain (hiring)
but because they're academics they can't actually accept their own findings and Still Believe:
> we nevertheless acknowledge that broad societal structural factors may still impede women’s advancement in academic science.
Rest of world experiences profound lack of shock at this 100% expected finding.
