staticelf, most of us here want that "true equality" that you refer to. But the unassailable fact of the matter is that we don't have it today.
Look around you: assuming you're in IT, unless you work in a truly remarkable place men considerably outnumber women. We (and I mean the egalitarian "we") have to do something about that.
I'd welcome your suggestion. But "start treating everybody as equals" is a goal, and not very prescriptive. How do we get from point A to point B?
(I upvoted you because your discourse is reasoned and polite.)
