Sebastian,
While I bristle at the words misguided, dubious, and especially the

based on X (sex, etc.), which I hope by now others can see isn't so, at least
I've gotten an actual counter-argument from someone that
Hoi,
I do not care one whit who you are or why you think you are provoked. What
I care about is arguments that are put cleanly without much fanfare. When

It's not denying attention or funds. It's focusing attention and funds on a
badly needed area for 3 months out of the year, and the rest of the
projects get the full 9 months. Inviting people to focus their proposals on
the gender gap (which, btw, doesn't need scare quotes, as I assure you it's
Identifying priority areas and directing resources (funds and human) toward
them is a non-controversial way to achieve goals.
This is exactly what is happening with this targeted campaign.
The grants team has made it clear that during this round it intends to work
with people and organizations
My 2 cents?
The carrot would be a different approach of the committees in the
