Societal changes are (always?) evolving and the descrimination based on status, position, education, perception, between genders has existed since Adam & Eve.
Where a choice or availability of any job has an element of '''objectivication" based on gender we have to face that such choice narrowing is nurture not nature i.e. society has created the acceptance of the end result.
There was a time (still?) when a father of a boy & a girl might espouse the view that his lad should sow wild oats.........but should any lad eye his daughter the wrong(?) way, heaven help him!
Across the world we have gender unfair societies. So F1 grids girls right or wrong ~ no idea but to simplify it by saying 'they' have a choice is wrong because their choices have been crafted by all manner of influences since they were born and those choices are not/were not the same as boys!
Do I have a solution, no but I try to recognise that a problem exists......can such gender bias ever be overcome without it being seen as 'political correctness' sadly I doubt it!
