Chairman. Men and women are equal and should be treated no different from the other.



You obviously do not believe that, or you would have written “men and men are equal”.


There are irreconcilable biological differences, but as far as socio-political bullshittery is concerned that's irrelevant.


Assuming you are a man, I'm not sure you would say the same thing if the arbitrary lingual fact was opposite, and on your door it would be written in bold chairwoman, or if you were been introduced as a policewoman.

I'm not sure I'm for changing the language all over, but I don't think dismissing issues that disturb a group that you don't belong to is a manner that fits a gentleman.
