why do we have to keep talking about all of this gender stuff? why can’t we just treat people as people without reference to gender?
Because a person’s gender is correlated with a lot of other properties of the person that are harder to observe directly, and we as Bayesians are obligated to condition on all the evidence we have available.

You understand I was quoting that question, rather than asking it, right?
