Let's say that there is a population bell curve of the variable "propensity to enjoy being a programmer". One curve for men, and one curve for women. In some dystopian future, everyone takes a career aptitude test, and if an individual falls within the top 10% of the overall population, they get turned into a programmer by the government. This is assuming a perfectly-trained AI judges the variable, and that it controls against the underlying variables of societal bias in order to ensure that long-term human resources are properly allocated, and that long-term biases, informed by people's interactions with eachother, trend toward actual biological differences.
It may well be the case that the gender split is 80% / 20% male to female (as is roughly the case today). It may not. However, the left-leaning zeitgeist opinion would seem to be that this outcome is impossible, and current observed differences are only due to systematic oppression. The right-leaning zeitgeist opinion would seem to be that this outcome would make sense.
I tend to think that the left-leaning opinion on this is so wrapped up in double-think that it can't even understand itself- it tends to argue too much in favor of "biological differences would mean permanent, uncorrectable injustice, therefore it is impossible that biological differences exist."
