Yeah duh.
To a first approximation, white dudes do not listen to other people or ever consider they could be wrong.
Our society tolerates, even rewards, men who have no curiosity and maximum confidence, but horrendously punishes women who do.
It sucks that societal mistreatment is the source of women and people of color being so much better at listening and learning, but there is definitely a huge difference.
A 14-year-long retrospective cohort study of almost 960,000 hospital inpatients with acute medical conditions (congestive heart failure, acute myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, COPD, pneumonia, stroke, and GI tract bleeding) found that those who were treated by female physicians had significantly lower 30-day mortality rates and readmission rates.
