Here's hoping we're both wrong on going backwards! Let's hope that they can rise above it all and see the benefit of equality in gender. It often does me good to consider that women didn't have a vote in the UK some 100 years ago and until recently my last 2 bosses in the RAF were female. We have come a long way in a short space of time and there is no reason, given the chance, that other cultures cannot have such a Herculean shift.
