Interesting as that's used for many ethical dilemmas like stem cell to cloning
I always thought it was based on history?

It is used frequently, and it is often used very improperly. If one manages to compile enough data to show that event A will likely or always lead to event B under a given set of circumstances, then I don't think most would consider it a fallacy since strong correlation (or better yet, causation) has been established. This is the case with vaccines and saying that if too many people are not vaccinated that it can lead to the re-emergence of certain illnesses because we have extensively studied their effectiveness and the concepts associated with it.

However, many people use it in ridiculous and extreme situations. In the 1950's, many argued that de-segregating schools (event A) would inevitably lead to the downfall of society (event B) by means of XYZ. More recently, people argued (and some unfortunately still do) that allowing gay marriage would destroy the meaning and sanctity of marriage. Obviously these are extreme examples, but suggesting that simply asking how someone would deal with discrimination (of any kind) toward herself will inevitably lead to the individual being discriminated against is just ridiculous.

I love the full poster on this site. Illustrates a lot of the more common fallacies very nicely, though several posters in this thread have already done that themselves...

@jl lin - I know you did not ask for this but I would really like you to step back from this. It's not helping you and quite possibly is hurting. Don't do that to yourself over a forum! 🙂

You are wrong about how lawsuits work, wrong about how the EEOC works, wrong about how the legal system works.

And the OP was wrong for dramatizing the thread with her title, and flaming the Attending Physician.

@Winged Scapula I see you lurking! 😉

What do you say?

I think I made my feelings clear in post #113.

As the only female physician in a male dominated profession posting here, I certainly have some thoughts but have no interest in engaging in long-winded Internet arguments about things that are unimportant to me or with people that have not had the experience I do.

Fair enough! I must have missed that entire page of posts while I was skimming this thread.
I only asked because there doesn't seem to be any female attendings weighing in here and I'm genuinely interested in the point of view of that perspective. I think we can all agree that this thread needs to die, though.


By the way, when I googled "IRL" to figure out what that means, Bear in the Big Blue House popped up.... ???

This is the last thing I'll say: There is a big difference between asking what it would be like to be a female physician and asking how being female would effect her ability to be a physician.

You et al are hedging at the difference, and more importantly, how that is perceived.

Y'all do what you want, and let the chips fall where they may. You may continue to luck out--mostly by betting on the fearful physician wannabes. The need to want to hold on to playing so close to the line says volumes to me. Something is wrong there. And sadly, this is the very reason why the government is made to step in and try to change such things. The government shouldn't have to do it. People should willing not do it. But b/c they feel some sense of power, they want to hold on to doing something that they don't need to do. That's a problem right there.

 

[jl lin]

Yea. Cross the line. . . b/c YOU CAN. . .or you THINK you can. Things comes around in due time. This is clearly all about a power trip. Final conclusion over asking questions that don't need, by any means, to be asked. Sorry, but it is what it is.

 

[Affiche]

Omg lol

 

[jl lin]

@jl lin - I know you did not ask for this but I would really like you to step back from this. It's not helping you and quite possibly is hurting. Don't do that to yourself over a forum! 🙂

You are wrong about how lawsuits work, wrong about how the EEOC works, wrong about how the legal system works.

And the OP was wrong for dramatizing the thread with her title, and flaming the Attending Physician.

What? Please expound on what that could possibly mean. You mean my IP address is being followed, and b/c of my views, I'll be less likely to gain entrance to Med School. Please, if that's a for real, please speak it outrightly. This is the kind of thing I wholeheartedly respect--FORTHRIGHTNESS and not hiding behind anything.

Yea. The last person to say that to me about legal stuff was a law student, who ended up not passing the bar, and of whom my attorney and a few others said, "Has no &*(^ing what he/she is talking about." My lawyer and his fellow lawyers ended up being dead on right of course. Think what you want.

The OP was concerned about the leading question in terms of gender. It shouldn't have gone down that way. My legal friends with excellent track records agree. Whether pursuit or not; dude that would depend upon the lawyer, their level of experience and confidence, and of course, money. Some can take more or less risks with certain cases. And some people can afford to take action or can get the right kind of support so that they can.
I can show you a dozen cases related to this kind of thing, where companies and organizations ended up settling out of court; b/c they were wrong and it wasn't worth it, and the plaintiffs accepted their bargains.

Like I said. You'all do what you want. Things come around. Medicine and Education tends to think it's impervious to things. It isn't.

I personality don't think it's either necessary or worth it; so I wouldn't do it. There is no clear benefit from this line of questioning.

Now, what? Someone is going to block me from med school for having an opinion. Interesting.

Guess you are OK with server gate.

This is something you posted in public, and thus you should clarify in public. I mean, what exactly were you trying to say?

This is the kind of thing that makes SDN severe and ridiculous at times. Veiled sort of threats? Really?

You have my gratitude, but I believe determination of the relative value of eloquence as compared to brevity in a given situation to be solidly within my capabilities.

Jl Lin, be reasonable. I think he was saying that in case you felt hurt by any of our comments. Again, (like he mentioned) you did not ask for that but he was being kind, not trying to make it worse 🙂

 

[jl lin]

What? Please expound on what that could possibly mean. You mean my IP address is being followed, and b/c of my views, I'll be less likely to gain entrance to Med School. Please, if that's a for real, please speak it outrightly. This is the kind of thing I wholeheartedly respect--FORTHRIGHTNESS and not hiding behind anything.

Yea. The last person to say that to me about legal stuff was a law student, who ended up not passing the bar, and of whom my attorney and a few others said, "Has no &*(^ing what he/she is talking about." My lawyer and his fellow lawyers ended up being dead on right of course. Think what you want.

The OP was concerned about the leading question in terms of gender. It shouldn't have gone down that way. My legal friends with excellent track records agree. Whether pursuit or not; dude that would depend upon the lawyer, their level of experience and confidence, and of course, money. Some can take more or less risks with certain cases. And some people can afford to take action or can get the right kind of support so that they can.
I can show you a dozen cases related to this kind of thing, where companies and organizations ended up settling out of court; b/c they were wrong and it wasn't worth it, and the plaintiffs accepted their bargains.

Like I said. You'all do what you want. Things come around. Medicine and Education tends to think it's impervious to things. It isn't.

I personality don't think it's either necessary or worth it; so I wouldn't do it. There is no clear benefit from this line of questioning.

Now, what? Someone is going to block me from med school for having an opinion. Interesting.

Guess you are OK with server gate.

And then this is your reply:

So, the message is to not value forthrightness. Lovely.

 

[Ad2b]

@jl lin - you are on a public forum and picking unnecessary fights. Not one person has publicly threatened you, nor would.

@Glazedonutlove - ty for trying (I'm a mom 😀 )

I am hurt by nothing stated here, online, on a forum thread. That would be utterly ridiculous.

I am talking about being forthright. Say what you mean and mean what you say. No games. When youstated "... hurting yourself," it was not in the manner of "sorry your feelings are or will be getting hurt." Looking at the context: "you are hurting yourself... " And then when asked specifically about what he meant, he took down his "warning" post to me, and did not respond in any clarifying manner. Now come on.

Fine. Then please explain what you meant.

And where is your post to me, which I quoted and why did you remove it?

That's what I thought.

Ad2b can pm me when he can think of a good explanation for what was meant. Game players. This is the kind of crap that kills professions and causes dissension among people. And it's on the smarmy side.

@Goro I'm sensing the ban hammer

Sigh. So light the torch yourself then. There is an alert post. I am extremely disappointed in what I have witnessed here. Goodnight.

 

[Ad2b]

@jl lin - I deleted no post of mine. Have no reason to. I am a mom.

 

[jl lin]

@jl lin - I deleted no post of mine. Have no reason to. I am a mom.

You are right. It is up there, now a ways back. I apologize. Still not sure what you mean by "hurting yourself." I don't know what mom has to do with it, but I am pro-moms.

Anyway, it's getting late, and there isn't much more than can be said.

PS. My bad for not using the ignore feature. I'll remedy that. Not for you. I just disagree, and that's OK.

 

[Ad2b]

@jl lin - you keep referring to me as a HE and I'm simply saying, I'm a mom 🙂 That's all.

Sorry about that Ab2b. I thought I read someone else write he. It's really hard to tell from here. LOL 🙂

 

[Winged Scapula]

Fair enough! I must have missed that entire page of posts while I was skimming this thread.
I only asked because there doesn't seem to be any female attendings weighing in here and I'm genuinely interested in the point of view of that perspective. I think we can all agree that this thread needs to die, though.

There's at least one other female attending who has been reading this thread but because I'm not sure whether she's revealed her gender or cares too I will leave that to her to do.

By the way, when I googled "IRL" to figure out what that means, Bear in the Big Blue House popped up.... ???

http://castle.eiu.edu/alsb/Archives/JELLvol12/You Can't Ask That final edit.pdf
PDF from ASLB Jounral of Employment and Labor Law, (not the best primary source but I don't have subscription to major law journals)
with references to law and prior cases
you can start at page 4
The conclusions I gained from this reading were the follows:

1) Asking questions related to gender that are not asked of male applicants and/or do not relate directly to the applicant's ability to perform the job functions is bad from a legal liability standpoint
2) Even if not illegal per se, and despite the varying factors and outcomes in these cases, when you read each one and think about the amount of back and forth lawyer playtime in the sandbox IT IS EXPENSIVE to defend these cases

http://employment.findlaw.com/hiring-process/illegal-interview-questions-and-female-applicants.html

Maybe not the best source, but gives some ideas
Asking "Should we refer to you as Mr., Miss, or Mrs.?" being a question is considered dicey, so I would say the below

whether I have considered what it would be like to be a physician as a female. The follow up question - have I ever shadowed a female physician before

per @twistedroses

Is not a good idea from a legal liability standpoint.

It is a question referring to gender, and the article I posted, as well as every other thing I could find, said the equivalent of
"While it's perfectly legal to ask questions assessing an applicant's job experience, qualifications, and motivation, employers must avoid interview questions that single out female applicants, and are not also asked of male applicants." - See more at: http://employment.findlaw.com/hirin...d-female-applicants.html#sthash.O58bP9sB.dpuf

An equivalent was stated in the link to the PDF above.

I normally wouldn't think too much of it, but the entire interview was unpleasant and it seemed like more of an attack than well intentions.

Would it be appropriate to notify the admissions office? Or should I just let it go?

from @twistedroses

The conclusion I have of the above, is that it is in the school's best interest not to have asked this question this way, and that if this came to the attention of the school's legal liability department, questions of this sort would be re-worded to protect the school.

Lastly, schools have been taken to court applying a lot of the same legal principles, therefore the fact that the interview is for school and not employment does not get the school off the legal hook, they will still have to pay an attorney playtime to respond to any suit that a rejection was for academic reasons and that the questions do not represent discrimination

Therefore, @twistedroses reporting this confidentially should not be discouraged but encouraged to protect the school and applicants from suits and discrimination.

TL;DR
1) To minimize legal liability, it is in the school's best interest not to ask the questions posed to OP
2) If OP confidentially reports this to the school, the school will be able to address this issue to reduce legal liability in the future

And this is bad why?
