Perhaps you're right David - men can display scars as part of their machismo and women should be kept indoors to protect their tender skin. Your approach to the sexes seems either old Prussian or Taleban I'm not sure which.
In my world a woman has the same rights as men: for example I don't particularly like tattoos: I have no wish to prevent either men or women having them.
My personal likes, dislikes, foibles, whims and prejudices don't give me any right to impose them on anyone else. It's to do with freedom, tolerance, equality, inclusion, acceptance, democracy and similar concepts.
It seems that a number of catters value these concepts, and thus relect the idea of a totalitarian nad repressive isolationist regime which you preach with some sort of misplaced missionary zeal.
I wish you were as fair, balaced and even-handed as you would like to be.
