"Equal" is a quantitative term that isn't very useful in qualitatively describing human beings. There is no objective measure of human greatness so a person or group of persons cannot be "equal" anymore than they can be "greater than" or "less than" one another. It's silly to say that both genders are "equal" just as it's silly to say that one gender is "superior." They're just different.

Aren't you supposed to be a libertarian?
Your powers of observation are impressive indeed. What gave me away? Was it the avatar?

Well, the avatar was my first clue. But then I started to doubt that once you said that people can't be equal because people are different, which sort of flies in the face of social libertarianism. Unless social libertarianism is no longer about freedom through equality.
Libertarianism is about letting people do more or less whatever they want as long as they don't aggress against the person or property of others. I'm not sure how that relates to what you're saying.
