The data shows that this is the opposite of the truth. There is considerable bias against men in the legal system.

Average is not the same as prominent, female CEOs face more scrutiny of their performance. I posted a link to a study on another comment.

    Respectfully, do you think you're shifting goalposts?

    Your argument was that women were more punished by law. The studies (as someone else linked) show that women are less punished by law.

    You switched your argument to "powerful women," which would require a lot of evidence, because it is contrary to the statistical expectation from the previous data, that women of all kinds would be less punished by law than their male counterparts.

    Now, your argument and the study you linked just refers to how many women get promoted and the attention and criticism they get, which is separate from our legal system.
