I didn't call YOU closed minded, I called your views closed minded. I've been an active participant in AI for nearly seven years -- I know the boundaries of civil discourse, and they haven't been crossed.

What I see in front of my eyes is enormous diversity of emotions, views, personalities, mentalities, psychologies, personal hygiene, eating habits, hobbies, body types and skills in the women I know. They are not all the same. They are not even all alike, except in that they all have vaginas. Most of them:

-have long hair
-smell nice
-are sexually interested in males
-like tea
-like reading

...And that's about the whole list of things that most of them share. And that's not most women, that's most of the women I know.

Physically, the only surefire difference is that men have penises and women have vaginas. There are statistical differences (most men are bigger and stronger than most women), but that's no more relevant than statistical differences between races or ethnicities, and if you go around saying "the differences between white and black people are awesome and black people should strive to be something whites can respect", you will be rightfully ridiculed. "Emotionally and psychologically", the statistical differences between men and women can almost always be easily shown to be SOCIETAL: in other words, men and women are often emotionally different because society treats them differently, and the people in charge (men) expect and demand certain things of both genders (especially women).

What I'm saying is, show me a difference between men and women. You still haven't, you just keep repeating that there ARE differences.

I know a lot of different men: men you'd consider "pansy", gym-obsessed men who show girls at clubs their biceps to get laid, men who prefer tea to coffee, extravagantly flamboyant gay (and straight) men, men who go out to bars and get hammered and start fights, angsty artistic men who write poetry, and men who like a little bit of everything.

I also know a lot of different women: women who like casual sex often, women who are more conservative in their sexual habits, big bulldyke women, women who have fought in wars in the military, women who dress up like 1920s pinup girls, women who paint pretty pictures, women who work in construction alongside men, women who wear heels to everything and don't want to break their nails, radical feminists who decry the hijab as religious oppression, religious Muslim men who feel that the hijab actually liberates them, women who have the emotional intelligence of a moon rock, and women who are expert problem-solvers and diplomats. And those are all women I KNOW PERSONALLY. Some of whom are lucky enough, or perhaps strong enough, to break the bonds of what society expects of them.

There are many more different kinds out there, too. And none is better or more of a woman than any other, just like you're no more a man than me. Who are you to say men and women are fundamentally different? If you'd read any science or actual study on the subject, you might have seen that "the nature you can see in front of your eyes" is not necessarily how the world actually is.
