Sexism
Freddie Woo tells us: Despite being a well rounded modern man I think women are best off getting married and having a few kids else they'll be absolutely miserable come middle age.
What views do you have that are probably sexist that you believe are true?

Unlikely,
Like you say, engineering, Politics and finance and still largely dominated by men. Building stuff, running stuff, and buying stuff. The world could survive without HR, Publishing and Psychology etc. but not without the others.
To be on the safe side only the only people who should be allowed to hold public office are the ones who can explain the off side rule whilst retrieving a key from a inside a jar placed in a bath full of spiders.
And then reverse park a car.

The world could indeed survive without HR, and should
but HR people are difficult to sack because they know all the employment laws. It could survive without psychology, but it won't because there are lots of psychologists selling services and telling people they need them.
But my main point was the trends - there are efforts to increase female representation in the engineering, politics and finance and the like. Meanwhile, the physical jobs - like building - will remain a male dominated area and hence two tiers created - physical and non-physical work, which could largely be identified on gender lines.
Maybe.
