Progressives will be around shortly to say we're all exactly the same. Oh it's against boys no they won't.

The problem also comes in when we create different standards for women so they can get in. I agree with you, remove gender, look at the person.

I agree with general differences between men and women. The thing we have to remember, is not to assume that every single male or female falls into those categories.
So, for example, we may say that generally speaking, women don’t have the same stamina as men. But there are women out there who DO have the same stamina. Or, we may say that men are not as good at nurturing children. But there are men out there who ARE as good at nurturing.
The problem comes in when a woman is automatically not hired into a position that generally speaking, fits more with male traits and qualities, when the fact may be that this woman has a lot of those traits and qualities.
Remember when women weren’t ever hired as CEOs of companies? It was thought they were too fragile and weak to handle such a position. Some women may be, but there are a lot of women who are just as tough as the men. Tougher.
