Not going to argue that all kinds of problems aren't around, but it's pretty "normal" AA. Can get higher positions with a weaker application because of the bits between your legs.

Yes they have higher desire for those positions and Peds pays a lot less. That makes it hard to attract men.

An interesting outcome is that it has gotten so bad that in some specialties (Peds, most famously) you do have outright affirmative action for men.
I don't understand what you are saying.
There is overwhelming female interest in pediatrics to the point where programs will incentive recruitment of male residents even if they aren't good.
That's affirmative action.
