Gender Bias in Pilots, Surgeons and Childcare: A Debate

If you're about to get on a plane and that plane's gonna fly through a hurricane, and there's a 50/50 chance of it crashing and dying, do you want a male pilot or a female pilot?

Fucking good pilot, I want. That is such a politically correct answer, and it's a lie.

How's that? We all know you'd want a man to fly that plane.

You do- you would not want some woman to walk up the stairs, "Hi, guys.

About to go into the hurricane." You'd be like, "What? Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Give me an old, white-haired man." Everyone knows it.

You're about to have brain surgery, and there's a 3% chance of success, 97% chance it's gonna fuck up and you're gonna die.

Are you more confident going to sleep seeing a man surgeon or a female surgeon?

To be honest, Manaj, I, it would be to get the fucking...

I don't know. However the best was at the time.

Well, th- well, that's good. And I, and I respect, I respect your very neutral view on the world.

Mm. Right? I have seen so many women fail to park and crash cars and do dumb shit.

I do not want a female pilot flying me through a hurricane.

I've seen enough female driving of all vehicles to know that that shit is a bad idea, and I want a male pilot. Am I sexist? Yes.

Why? Because of my experiences of the world, I am a realist.

I am absolutely and utterly a realist, and if you're a realist, you're sexist.

I believe women are better at some things and men are better at some things.

I do not believe we're equal and all the same and we can be I believe that certain roles suit females and certain roles suit males.

Let me ask you another question then because you're Mr. Non-Sexist.

Let me ask you another question. Would you drop your child off in a daycare Let me ask you another question. Would you drop your child off in a daycare where it was run only by men?

No. Women only. Yeah, there you go then.

Yeah. So you do have a gender- Not women only, but I would say women only ... so you do have a gender bias
