H: It may be impossible through inductive reasoning to discover which gender of humankind is ultimately superior to another. We could observe or compare all males and females that have ever and will ever exist with each other. Furthermore, if we could know whether a woman is more than equal to a single man, or a group of women more than equal to a group of men, this is not a reason to conclude that one is better than the other ultimately, because the result, no matter how many times consistently achieved, is subject to change.
W: More importantly, how are we to know that the judge of the contest is unbiased, for all tests reflect their society’s rules. If all societies are based on inequalities, as most societies are with a hierarchy of classes, then the test is unequal to begin with, and thus invalid. Furthermore, every man and woman has stock in winning the contest, and how are we to decide what the test shall be based on? It is to be sure that women are treated unequal, though we are not.
H: Even if that is so now and forever has been true, it too is subject to change.
W: Hopefully it will.
