It's a straw man, because no one can say anyone, regardless of gender, is equally skilled in all areas.

I don't consider this a civil rights issue.

I noticed you didn't refute my original statement that men and women are not both equally skilled in all areas even though that certainly seems to be the claim you were making only a few posts earlier.


No two people are equally skilled.

One of the parents, or someone they solicit to perform this function. Gender matters not.

I think endless is happy to keep the discussion on a "general" rather than "individual" level. Under those circumstances, can you refute the argument?
