I saw that and found it much too vague all all-encompassing. If you offered more specifca details, that might help.

@gailcalled i want to know if women will get help that they can get a special job in the politics like president or something like that. Do they get special encouragement?

Watch Hillary Clinton’s (D) career path and read about her history as a polically powerful female. Ditto for Condaleeza Rice®.People get encouraged according to their abilities, power and clout. It is still certainly more difficult for women.

Elizabeth Warren
Madeline Albright
Nancy Pelosi
Kirsten Gillebrand
Sarah Palin

Keep in mind that there are still some buildings that do not abide by these policies because they are grandfathered in.
In other news, Rice’s name is now a registered trademark!

Auto-correct kept changing (AR) to the trademark. i got tired of trying to fix it.

(R). Use the “verbatim” command.
