But how does this relate to gender? Even if you assume only two genders, why would being a feminine person play any role in their qualifications? That's what the comment was about.

I would imagine because women are under-represented in this field, so naturally we have to weight gender over qualifications. It's just the way things are. I wish it wasn't and qualifications/ability played a 100% part in these decisions.

    So the ones in the field have passed a higher barrier and pressure and are more qualified than the p80 male.

    This could be another spin on the topic ;)
