Why should we bother promoting minority groups rather than promoting people who contribute significantly? Wouldn't that solve your gripe over 'recognition?'
Specifically promoting someone because they are a minority is discrimination. People should receive recognition because of their achievements, not because of their gender or ethnicity. I seriously find it difficult to believe that you people are highly educated but cannot see a contradiction here.

I’d like everyone to feel they had access to college to study whatever they want
How are you going to do this while making sure "women and men participate equally?" Isn't that a contradiction?

The question was "who is preventing women from receiving the recognition they deserve?"
You gave an example from 1944.

the concept of a female-only award is absurd. If females are equal to men then there should be one award which rewards quality work. You shouldn't be awarded because you are a female, that has nothing to do with your contributions to the field.
