&gt; They said (paraphrasing): Women are ok. Men are not...There&#x27;s no other way of reading it.<p>No, they said &quot;bias towards female.&quot;  Any reading which reads &quot;bias towards x&quot; as &quot;x is ok, !x is not.&quot; is a complete violation of both the words and the intent of the statement.<p>Furthermore, biasing towards women doesn&#x27;t remotely imply &quot;men are bad.&quot;  It&#x27;s simply an established fact that women <i>on average</i> are more nurturing and empathetic, and those are qualities one should seek when one needs help.
