Wow, I get it that for the most part the quoted scholarly paper from 1851 is a load of bullshit. This is why there has to be a divider between a performer and judges who will decide wether or not a brass player will play for large orchestras or symphonies. For a very long time women were thought to be inferior at playing brass instruments, and would never even have been considered for 1st chair in a large orchestra or symphony. Put up the divider at auditions and women play just as well if not better than men. There are still judges who don't like the stupid divider and want to hire only men to play brass. Knowing this does not mean that there are no differences between men and women at some very basic levels. Women and men have equal ability as far as cognitive skills, math, music and spewing the bullshit of philosophy.

I guess what I've been trying to say in answer to the original question is that this man wants a WOMAN. And a woman in my book is a hell of a lot more then a vagina and breasts. Although a vagina and breasts are a pretty cool part of the package and should definitely not be dispensed with.
