Yeah, you see, there's a world of difference between "there is literally no difference between people who, all other things equal, have different sexes" and the thing I actually said that you were responding to. But I mean, you've created a brand new Chief Delphi account to argue about gender, snipped a single line of a post made two weeks ago out of context, and then dropped a link to a Wikipedia article as some kind of justification for institutional sexism, so I don't really think productive dialogue is going to result from this conversation no matter how I respond to it.
