<p>[QUOTE="Kasia, post: 1887856, member: 31533"]As wonderful as it is to know the CEO is a woman, I live for the day where there is not a need for a distinction of that sort, i.e. where not only won't it matter whether a CEO is a woman or man, but also where it will be just as common to expect that it could be either.... so maybe a 50/50 or near-so split, and the expectation that regardless of whether a woman or a man that the woman is on a par pay wise as the man. Too often women are still either not getting the opportunities in business, based on the expectation that they won't be in it for the long run, but also if they are given the opportunities they are paid less than men (generally around 67-78 percent or so of what a man would cost the company if hired for that position) or given just enough opportunity to have a higher job, but not one that would lead them to higher than that. And that in that case, should a he/she be needed, that it is not necessary to 'correct' the error, should it be the case.... that labeling a CEO who is male a 'she' erroneously or a CEO who is female a 'he' erroneously is not a problem. It is presumed that if it is erroneous in favor of the male that it is insulting, and in the case of the female that it is so unusual that you have to make mention of it. Well, off my soap box.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
