Gender etc provided a new vector.

The lack of awareness was the prof not realising corporate and upper class women are just as capable of being con artists with a dysfunctional grasp on reality as men are. (Other women are too, but they don't get the opportunities.)

It's an ironically sexist assumption.

This is a lie. Look at the OIG's blotter-- every name on it is going to be male.

Women comprise 60% of all embezzlement convictions.

Women also occupy 60% of all accounting jobs.

You'll see men facing consequences more, when you give men more opportunity to steal.
