We just need to keep challenging ourselves to be better I guess.agreed on all counts - including the lack of success
when I posted about empathy a few days ago, the impetus is basically what you describe here
and yet, as recently as on the previous page, we have comments about how someone isn't credible to talk about something or be an authority on something because he looks a certain way
that sort of predisposition doesn't say much about a willingness to adopt the sort of mindset you're talking about
it's also doubly weird for someone to base a judgment and declare someone 'not credible' based on looks alone then try to push back on the idea that someone might judge another person based on gender alone. "This dude can't do X because look at him!" isn't far removed from "That girl can't do Y because she's a girl."
Windmills don't tilt themselves, I guess
