There was some sort of music or orchestra that decided to do blind listening tests for the judges to eliminate sexism.
There was a paper in 2000 that claimed that it increased female selection by 50%, but so far, only the opposite has been replicated and to my knowledge, no explanation to where they got their numbers was ever provided.
It turns out that when the judges knew that the women were women, they would rate them higher.

It makes sense to me, on average women are more sensitive to negative emotion (higher neuroticism) and are more sensitive to issues with coworkers when trying to fit into their role (higher agreeableness): meaning they’re more susceptible to imposter syndrome.
