Isn't treating women differently from men sexist by definition? If we want equality, let's treat everyone equally. No special programs for any gender. We're constantly told that men and women are the same, and that you can even switch between them any time you want, but then we hear the complaints that gender X does better/worse at task Z. This narrative doesn't make any sense to me.

Men and women obviously aren't the same, no matter how much gnashing of teeth of matter occurs, because both have their strengths in different areas, according to their overall psychology. Men and women are psychologically-different, and no amount of trying to force a desperate sameness will change that. In fact, it might even cause people to want to be even more different than before. The SJWs campaign for "sameness" but act like the complete opposite. Maybe they're just in denial of who they truly are, and are unconsciously asking for help and recognition that they truly matter, but cannot help but unconsciously portray this in a destructive manner for all to see, except themselves and their blind peer group.

  It's not just the SJWs though. Google recently fired a talented developer for essentially saying "Men and women obviously aren't the same".

    Good point. I'll revise: It's not just the SJWs, but also companies and corporations that cooperate with the ridiculous bullshit of the utterly divisive and politically-correct gender/race insanity that's corroding various aspects of Western culture. I've been verbose enough, because I'm quite fed up with how much this utter crap is infesting culture and causing so much trouble for innocent people who don't remotely deserve to have be treated like they have been.

  "men and women are different" is such a broad statement you sure could say it and then say "duh anyone who disagrees is bullshit". Here's big news : blue eyed and brown eyed people are different. As for the rest of your text, it's all just broad statements with very little scientific value, since theybare then again broad claims. Girls prefer pink, y'know. So natural.

    The SJWs have no evidence for their broad and vague claims either, which are almost completely exaggerated for personal gain, and have nothing to do with actual social justice, which they seek to deny to those they hate, attack and defame. Don't try and drag science into this, when this is a set of social issues based on a bunch of people's mental health issues and how they're taking it out on other people.

    There are consistent, globally found physical[1] and psychological differences[2] between the sexes, so it's a bit more complicated than comparing people with different eye colors.
