Are you being facetious? How does science benefit from a diversity of genitalia? I'm not saying women should or shouldn't do this or that.. but the irrational compulsion to force equity between the sexes is stupid. Providing equal opportunity is good. Forcing equal outcome is evil.

I believe what I said was that science benefits from a diversity of "perspectives".

But go on, rant against those straw men if it makes you feel better.

Gender quota != diversity of perspective
