Well, to begin, I enjoy the subtle disparaging comments of the author of the article. I am also a tad curious as to the omitted hyperlinks and graphs.
I began to try and read the entire thing, until after awhile I realized that he was essentially just reiterating what numerous other people have attempted to explain before (whether it be incorrect/correct) I ended up scrolling to the bottom, expecting there to be a reply from Google HQ, lo and behold, I was right, and the general message of the reply basically informed everyone that Google would be dismissing this memo, and was hoping to sweep it under the rug. Pretty much par for the course whenever someone attempts to broach this conversation.
One thing I did think was clearly wrong however, (before I lost my patience and skipped to the end) was the argument that men are more status driven. This just seems silly, you could perhaps argue that men and women attempt to achieve status in different ways, but to outright say that men have a higher drive for status, seems a bit... whats the word? Whatever, fill in the gap.
I feel so bad for the man who wrote this though. He's undoubtedly going to suffer in some way for this.
