So physical strength equates to superiority?

I guess I won’t waste MY time waiting for you to tell me why the majority of graduates from medical, veterinarian, and psychology schools are now women.

Same logic.

Why, oh why, do some seem to feel that conservatism means that men are superior to women? Why, when I appeal for fair treatment, do claims of superiority emerge? Very strange to me. Differences are simply that - superiority and inferiority are cultural judgments. These archaic sexist memes suggest Saudi Arabia, not American enlightenment. It’s disheartening, to say the least.

Hey. Conservatives aren't the ones who came up with Title IX, the physical requirements for police officers based on sex, equal pay legislation, etc., etc.

One possible explanation is that Title IX funding prevents more qualified applicants (i.e., men) from attending the universities that teach those professions.

Except for the psychology thing. We all know why there are more female psychologists than males. Women are obviously better mind readers than men.

I would be very interested in learning what you think the reason is?
