[Still Thinking]

I read Eubanks comments about Dagny having babies a little differently. I didn't see it as a generic sexist remark regarding women. It was a specific jab at her competence. They would have had no problem with her having a position if she were incompetent in it. Producers and the competent are the enemy through the whole novel.

I'm not sure about the lack of sexism. I don't know about Eubanks, but Jim was shocked at the idea of Dagny holding the post of VP Operations because she was a woman.

Re: Jim’s opinion about Dagney.

Jim being the brother knew Dagney was competent and would show him up as the greaser/and squeezer that he was.

No guy wants his sister showing him up.
