The truth is that women and men can both excel at whatever work or role they are assigned if they put their head to it, there are probably only a couple exceptions such as jobs who require physical force where man have an advantage over women

More like bull****.

Patriarchy makes us believe that men and women excel at different things, not biology.

You're really confused.

For instance we never had a female defense secretary.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United...ies_of_Defense

And US is instantly racist or sexist??

Nonsense!!!

Similar probably goes for countries with active militaries.

It only makes common sense.

Every single country out there is racist or sexist.

It's only the matter of scope and intensity. Women in even the most gender equal countries are still constantly subjected to sexism.

I have never once said that the USA is racist or sexist (truth is that any country is, some more than others of course but that's not the matter) but that you unconsciously are, that would explain the way you talk about anyone who isn't white, male, right-wing and probably straight.

Explain me a couple valid reasons why it wouldn't make sense to have a female minister of defense instead of a male. At least, validate your claims instead of always changing argument or even ideas for a couple minutes before returning to your original ones any time they are challenged

FWIW, female finance ministers are still unusual too... Finance, defence, and foreign affairs (secretary of state in the U.S.) are the highest profile cabinet positions, and women are only beginning to get into those ones in most countries.

Oh i don't care what you Europeans think.

I'm not sexist at all.

And quite the contrary to be honest.

It was just common sense but you Europeans are very emotional it seems.

For "common sense" read bigotry that has NO place in 2016

How about you give us some facts claiming men and women are so different? Oh wait, you can't
