Re: "sex egalitarianism, in practice"
Defenders of the status quo may claim that women are being put in positions that they deserve, that this is proper to a true meritocracy (even though affirmative action and other sex-related or ideological considerations probably play a role in the deliberation of those who enable these women to displace men) - but this "meritocracy" is nonetheless based on the assumption of sex egalitarianism, that the sexes and the roles proper to each are the same. This is the underlying error which causes great injury (to men), despite the "good intentions" of those seeking to promote women or to provide redress for "historical wrongs" which are not really such.
