(2018) convincingly argues that industrial and organizational (I-O) psychology professionals share a responsibility to adopt a social-structural perspective in understanding why women are underrepresented in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. This approach offers the best path forward for explaining the disparity and improving the attraction and retention of women in these fields (Miner et al., 2018). In conjunction with the approach described, a deliberate effort to cast a spotlight on women of color is necessary, as they are the most marginalized, yet are often excluded from conversations about gender equality. By discussing gender alone without an intentional focus on issues of race and ethnicity, we risk falling into a pitfall of progressive movementsof taking a White perspective as a default and excluding women of color. Thus, an intersectional lens is needed that focuses on the interplay among various complex identities, such as race, gender, and class, rather than examining them as separate (Crenshaw, 1991; Lorde, 1980). By considering the gender disparity in STEM from social-structural and intersectional perspectives simultaneously, we gain a more complete understanding of the issues of women in STEM and position ourselves toward building more inclusive solutions.
