The fact of the matter is that threads like YLYL perpetuate a general theme of sexism and patriarchy which leads to all other terrible outcomes. If you had a daughter, why would you not support that?

Tinordi - Take a break from your high horse and read what he said. He's speaking from experience in his family and his profession that he sees great strength and empowerment with the women in his day to day life. Take a second from your stomping around and appreciate that he's giving us a positive example of strong women in his life and sharing that story with us.
He's trying to show us that there is progress being made, in his view, and we should embrace that and not immediately sh*t on it with "but this and that and imbalance and systemic"
Holy shmoly.
