Do you think that in fields like mining, oil drilling, etc., there is negative bias against women? I contend that no one even considers a question like this because those occupations are low status. (Also there are so few women there that nobody thinks about it. But where men are so over-represented, you would expect the bias to be so much worse!)

Secondly, I think feminists are much too concerned about the 1%, and the status that comes with it. Federal politicians and CEO's of top companies are about as elite as you can get, and there seems to be a push to have more women in those positions. Perhaps your experience is different, but whenever I hear about disparities or unfair treatment, it's about desirable, highly-paid jobs.
