Nevermind that imperical evidence shows that equally qualified women throughout all STEM Professorships (as well as hiring audits going back to the 80's), whether married w/ children, divorced, or single, are favored above all men, married w/ children, single, or divorced with children, by 2-1 and in some cases 4-1.

I'm not sure if you're agreeing or not but this is basically showing what i said.

I was providing supporting data to your statement, that's all.  I agree that we've come a LONG way from a time where women were shunned from certain fields.  A very long way.  And the studies show if anything, the situation has gone past equality, into sexism for women.
