Esme, nice and informative comment, but there's one thing bugging me since this 'social equality' started: why do everyday women refuse to do hard labour?
You want to be treated as equals but you also want to work only in cushy fields, like medicine, science, teaching and so on. Basically anything that does not imply using muscles.
So it seems that women do not want an equal society but a divided one: let the males do all the muscle work and let the females do the intellectual work. After all, evolution made males strong, it's not your fault.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
