OT RE: "in fact, i would say the picking of roberts, if anything, underscores the fact we societally have come AWAY from the notion that gender should be a consideration"

Actually, that was true a generation ago, with the Baby Boomers generation I believe, where it became PC (politically correct) to invalidate gender differences.

But with Gen X and Gen Y generations, there now is a realization that it is invalidating to ignore the differences between men and women (as well as other areas of diversity), and in fact, if those differences aren't acknowledged, then those differences are granted no rights.

I think it might have been during the baby boomer generation timeframe where some may have incorrectly assumed they had to deny any difference between people for fear of being labeled racists or sexist. Thus, that stuck a generation from advancing the rights of diversity.
