Explain the "pipeline" argument regarding women's advancement to leadership positions and offer evidence to support or refute it
What will be an ideal response?
An argument could be made that these represent a causal cycle because women tend to feel more responsibility with child-rearing than men. This causes people to see women in this role more (stereotype activation). Women are therefore perceived as nurturing, which causes people to treat them this way. Society affirms women when they enact these roles, so women assimilate the stereotype. Women can become psychologically adapted to these roles, so they carry them to the workplace (and leadership styles).
