The comment I responded to stated this: "There are lots of problems still obviously *but in general women in China are quite equal to men.*" From what you yourself say, women in china are not quite equal to men. There's ways to acknowledge progress that's been made without literally saying women are quite equal to men. It was a very patriarchal society, it's gotten less so but it's still unequal. Here is a another article, apparently many government jobs openly state they prefer male candidates. Here is a key line from the article: "Nearly a fifth of postings for national civil service jobs listed a requirement or preference for male candidates; a trend repeated in advertisements for prestigious positions in other industries too, according to a 2018 Human Rights Watch report." https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2019/9/29/china-women-still-battling-tradition-70-years-after-revolution https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2019/9/29/china-women-still-b... Great, so progress has been made, but letting a claim like "but in general women in China are quite equal to men" go unchallenged seems just wrong given how unequal women are still being treated. And to be fair, the united states has some serious issues with regards to gender equality too.
