Sorry, but Bruce is right. Better now than it was 10 or 20 years ago
but I can name names of people that would not vote for a woman.

In my working career I was even questioned a few times when I hired or
promoted a woman to a previously male held job. I got "are you sure you
want to do that?". I made the right choice in every case.

But you have not named them Ed, so it is only an anecdote.

Here is another ... I was fired for not promoting a negro. I could
name names, but I won't.

Once, I was king of huchewawi which was a dutch colony started in
1912 by Wyatt Earp. He left to go back to california, so I
eventually turned it over to the european powers.

Did you know that Wyatt Earp had three ears?
The left ear, the right ear, and the wild front ear.
