This. You know that some kind of parity has been reached, not when the best of some discriminated-against group finally get to show how great they are, but when the mediocrities of that group reach high position the way that mediocrities of the dominant group do. (And saying nothing about the abilities of these particular women, rather that they get to make fun stupid movies too.)

(Now I am trying to think of a woman or a person of color as aggressively mediocre as GWB who might reasonably be considered an indicator of a true post-racial or post-gender-wars presidency.)
