There is no "equal airtime" rule for gender for every thread in which gender comes up.

Except your demands in this thread are specifically for equal attention and care to be paid to women. You're right, there's no "equal airtime" rule for gender, at least where you are concerned - there's just an "equal airtime" rule for one gender.

As I am sure you know, because you follow the principle of charity -- right?

No. I follow a reciprocal principle. Do you think you have been charitable? I don't.

OP's take on women is "worse" than OP's take on men, to me.

Are you sure your perceptions are unbiased? https://uwspace.uwaterloo.ca/bitstream/handle/10012/6958/Yeung_Amy.pdf

Men are described in terms of physics -- "spring in the step." Women are described in terms of sex appeal.

Which is a perfectly valid criticism to make, and entirely different from the criticisms you actually made, which is why I responded to you in the first place.
