"These men were experiencing even minor female representation as an iniquity. As far as they were concerned, the playing field was already level, and the entirely male line-up was just an objective reflection of merit."
Ah yes, the good 'ol "objective reflection of merit" excuse. That's... believable 😑

"... because what is male is universal (and what is female is niche) ... V. S. Naipaul criticises Jane Austen’s writing as ‘narrow’, while at the same time no one is expecting The Wolf of Wall Street to address the Gulf War, or Norwegian writer Karl Ove Knausgaard to write about anyone but himself ... to receive praise from the New Yorker for voicing ‘universal anxieties’ in his six-volume autobiography."
