How is it patronizing or disenfranchising? I’m trying to understand your view.

Thanks for asking!
Given I used the words correctly:
Easily:
Imagine someone would tell you (with whatever passion for whatever work), that you should forsake that given passion (and probably talent), ONLY because of your gender and do whatever the other person (with another gender) wants you to do.
There will be no argument about that because of YOUR gender, your future will be determined and dependent (psychologically trained, but also financially then) by someone else, because of your gender.
Or for us bitcoin plebs:
Imagine your s. o. would _demand_ from you to transfer your BTC funds to THEIR custody ONLY. "because some genders tend to make irrational financial decisions and are more prone to gambling" or whatever. Its only to protect you OFC, because your s. o. knows better than you, but you cant understand that, because of your gender...
How would that feel?
My point is that decision making based on gender only is MOSTLY bullshit and to the heavy disadvantage of women.
