So women have more trouble breaking into a particular tiny minority career, and therefore other women should feel anguish over the rare "women are alluring" goofup on LessWrong? If there's anything relating to the original point here I'm not seeing it.
Well, I wasn't the one who brought up politicians as an example. But they are an example (just an example) of the imbalance of power, opportunity, control, call it what you like, that exists between men and women. And that imbalance is part of the reason why some women do (no "should" about it; I'm happy for those that don't) feel annoyance or distraction (not anguish, at least certainly not in my case) over such goofups.
Upvoted for your consistent politeness on a topic where it is very easy to get angry. Thanks for helping keep the discourse constructive!
From this comment, I infer that you're white. (The survey says 94% of LWers are, so I'm not winning many Bayes-points.)
