The few that require a specific physical trait are often traits that can be developed by either gender. There's very few exceptions where one gender is favored over another. Last I checked, the only job requirement that required a penis was a gigolo, but there are female equivalents to the profession.
So, yes, you do believe there are jobs that men are more suited for than women, and visa versa. Why would you say that understanding this wasn't rational then?

Do you actually believe this or are you just playing devil's advocate?
You also mentioned wage discrimination. Are you aware of the wage gap myth?

Few to the point where it's basically irrelevant, and even then that's because they're some explicit necessity for the gender in particular.

Yes I believe that. It doesn't take a brain surgeon to look at a children's clothing section and notice the split between girls' clothes and boys' clothes. It'd be foolish to say that putting specific types of clothes in different sections supposedly for different genders doesn't send a message to children.

If you're going to bring up a counterpoint, you'd be best to spell it out. Asking if I'm aware of a myth and not bothering to explain it is basically putting more work on me to find out about it if I'm not aware. Frankly, it's your job to explain your side of the argument, not mine.
