>I believe in democratic societies where if a majority feels something is dangerous, they have a right to make policy around that issue.

So it would be acceptable for those same religious people to stop females from getting the same sort of education males receive? The damage done to others by such actions has to be taken into account.

I addressed that already.

This is something said but not done: look at how the male minority is treated in education, where the female majority speaks about equality while engaging in institutional sexism against the minority.

If Democrats want me to believe they are genuine in those principles, they should apply them consistently.

Why did you bring up Democrats in this discussion with the implication that other political parties don't do the same thing?

>I addressed that already.

Females are slightly more than 50% of the population.
