It's true that men and women are not the same. This has everything to do with our biology.
I don't necessarily agree with the attributes that your expert lists as characteristics of men and women, because I think it varies wildly by individuals. We could debate how many of those are a factor of "nature" vs. "nurture" and societal expectations to conform to certain norms.

But, just because we come at things differently, doesn't make us unequal. It just makes us different. The equality of which I speak has to do with the way women are treated.
I have long been an advocate for equal treatment of women. By "equal" I do not mean that special standards are set for women, but rather that women are given the opportunity to meet the same standards that might otherwise be set for men.
