It all gets convoluted anyway your turn.
Can a position that math and numeracy is a boy thing
and therefore CP4E with a numeracy slant is not gender friendly or
neutral be considered 'progessive'. Many women would find that
position objectionable. Clearly the stories we tell - Stephen's stories -
can and should be either gender neutral or play both sides of the fence in
turn.
But I can't except that math itself is not a gender neutral subject.
Two culture wars in a day. Whoosh.
