Firstly do not even TRY to lecture me on this. Don't you DARE!

Secondly, looking at the standard male, ok look we are being oppressed response such as we find repeatedly on this forum, no, we haven't yet got it right.

I routinely work with girls who don't think they can be aircrew / engineers / scientists / military / whatever because they are STILL routinely told they can not be good enough.

So aye, we still need change!
