But how odd that the qualities that would be considered “women’s strengths” are the less valued in society

I don't think things like bearing children are valued any less, simply valued differently than, say, physical strength on the battlefield. It's important to procreate so we have a future generation, but it's equally important to protect our freedoms so our future generations remain free.

I will continue to point out misogyny when I see it, however. I will mention, though, that it’s amazing how overtly racist statements aren’t tolerated

Be my guest, but here we don't like to whitewash the fact that there are differences in sex and race. Blacks are, on average, better athletes than whites. So what? Men are, on average, stronger than women. So? It's genetic predisposition and biology - not something to take offense to. This is why political correctness is stupid.

I’ve noticed that many seem to scorn science, but there is more variability within gender than between them.

If you truly believe that “women’s strengths” haven’t been used by men over history to make women “inferior”, then we live on different planets.

Enjoying your repartee with canaan. Do you have any scientific documentation to back this up? You've been pretty logical so far but this isn't true...
