Qualified from my own experiences, if there are similarly qualified individuals, I have seen women predominantly choose the women over the man. In this specific case, I would argue/posit that this is a Carney vs Freeland scenario. Are you saying it would be unsophisticated for women to bias a decision towards another women? Do you think this is the case for politics? Business? Social
Interaction?

I wouldn’t. While there could be intragender competition amongst women, in no way would I assume/bet/anticipate a bias toward favouring automatically a man over a woman.
