    Of course there are gender differences. Even the “most woke” of people will acknowledge this as for, for example, gender identity to work there needs to be something to identify with (or to not identify with I suppose).

    But we aren’t speaking about differences in general, we’re talking about one specific trait - ‘strength of character’ - which is not one that is feminine or masculine. A man can show strength of character by standing for their beliefs in a fight or by raising their child against societal odds or by dealing with a traumatic situation in a way that ensures better outcomes than otherwise. But so can a woman? A woman does not become manly despite showing strength of character. One’s gender and presentation and aesthetic doesn’t influence their strength of character. I mean, we’ve all seen Legally Blonde right?
