Unfortunately this is already happening in the UK, for example: https://archive.ph/dM4D0

It really does make a mockery of the struggle women continue to have to achieve equality in this still largely male-dominated area.

I suspect no one anticipated the identity could come into tension with equality in this way, but in hindsight it seems obvious and inevitable that it would. We probably will end up abandoning gender categories altogether, it seems the only possible step forward
