Brilliance bias is in no small part a result of a data gap: we have written so many female geniuses out of history, they just don't come to mind as easily. The result is that when "brilliance" is considered a requirement for a job, what is really meant is "a penis".
It's true, no? If someone asked you to think of a genius, how many of you (us) would think of a woman?
