Is kirks womanizing incredibly unproffessional?

Not at all masculine. Just the opposite--not a fact in sight.

Your position is no different that claiming that math is different for men and women.

Why do men dominate the fields of science, engineering and mathematics?

"Key Concepts
Closing the Sex Gap

Women, on average, have stronger verbal skills (especially in writing) and better memory for events, words, objects, faces and activities.

Men generally are better at mentally manipulating objects and at performing certain quantitative tasks that rely on visual representations.

Intervention studies are still in their infancy but suggest both sexes can benefit from targeted training to improve their skill set."

I am aware of those studies. They suggest that men and women have different mathematical abilities, not that math is different. And that was my point about same values, but different behaviour. So, well, thank you for agreeing with me.

Wow, Don Quixote. If that's what you think then own up to it, but don't try to use me so that you have an excuse to say such nonsense.

Good backpedaling. Well, not so good actually.

Have you thought about what you are saying? You are agreeing with me. If men and women had the same personal values, then your feminists would have nothing to fight against.

You seem very confuse between society and individuals, between values and behaviour.

Crap. Now I'm bisexual. Or androgynous.
Whatever.

Don't feel bad about having a feminine side.

And this comment really tells me all I need to know about your position on the issue.

If all you can do is argue that the actual math does not magically change in the hands of a male versus a female, this discussion is over.

Good backpedaling. Well, not so good actually.

There was no backpedaling but you just say whatever pops into your head without offering a single fact. If you would actually read what I have written, then you could argue intelligently. You keep arguing with childish taunts and no facts. Any one can stand up and scream, "I'm right, and you're wrong," which is just another version of "My daddy can beat up your daddy." I just don't have time to participate in this kind of "discussion." If you want to offer some facts to back up your views, then we can discuss them. Otherwise, I'll just ignore you.

I think of that mediocre Achilles-Brad Pitt movie when I pose this question. We saw the implications of such tomfoolery there.

A great example of someone who hasn't actually watched Star Trek.
