Ditto for people who insist on valueing/devalueing those differences to pretend one set of humans is worthwile and the other set of humans is of lesser value.

I agree very much. Here's something on which you may mull. If some horrific event should occur in which our technology reverted to what it was circa 1820 -- where life expentancy was about 30 years and which strong muscles were needed for 90 percent of workplace positions -- what would happen to gender roles?

I suspect we'd pick up where we left off in 1820. Which would include a great deal of female labor in cooperation with male labor to get us back to 2002!
