Our culture does emphasize "ladies first" which is something I do too. Like opening doors for a woman or letting a woman order first. But that was my choice to make. It should not be imposed.
I guess chivalry is dead. I am ever so grateful I was raised well and was taught to respect women (and differ on issues that even may SEEM to be unfair). The difference between the sexes comes down to poorly prepared beef or chicken in AS FC cabin? Discriminatory?...NOT! Give me a break! Let me know when you are flying next to me in FC so I can downgrade.
