A better solution would be to do gender-blind hiring, not gender quotas.

I was only responding to the suggestion that quotas are "mathematical nonsence". I don't know if they are the best solution or not.

This would also account for transgender and intersex individuals too.

Why shouldn't the right person be hired just because they have both sets of genitalia? How does that fit in to the quota system?
