If it means that to match as a white male you have to be above average then so be it, we already have the benefit of knowing how to fit in with the vast majority of neurosurgeons due to sharing the same culture, and having zero bias against us as we go through each step of the process. Agree with what Dr Chambless wrote. No one is putting white male as a negative, it is just neutral and not a positive mark.


Can you even understand what you wrote? If you are prioritizing one group based solely on skill color--the ability to produce melanin, nothing more--then you are automatically putting down another group based solely on color. How is this right? 

At any rate, why don't you practice what you preach? Give up your seat for a female or minority applicant. Go ahead, I'll be waiting.

Race is not just about skin color. It’s include IQ, health, time preference, and genetically-programmed behavioral patterns including aggression. Don’t be naive.

The amount of blatant racism, sexism, and classism people are explicitly endorsing on this forum is absolutely nauseating. You're all doctors, and you're privileged to be in that position. Do better.
