[QUOTE="Frankenstein Underworld, post: 445218, member: 35"] Yes. Unfortunately, some people mistake equal worth as humans with being equal in terms of strengths and aspirations. There are exceptions to the rule when it comes to career choices, of course, but in many ways, men and women are not the same. Some people bristle at that notion and call it "sexist" because they believe that discrimination is the only reason more women aren't in male-dominated fields. I'm sure discrimination still exists to some degree, but it doesn't appear to be the driving force. If anything, both gender discrimination and the so-called "wage gap" have lessened considerably. I even posted an article on the previous page that supports this claim, but I'm used to the knee-jerk "you made that up!" type of response. Some people have built a bubble around themselves so strong that absolutely nothing can penetrate it. That said, here are the relevant excerpts yet again: [/QUOTE]
