Even if we went with stereotypes we would have to make a point that men and women are truly “complementary” and we need each other.  We are good at some things that men typically aren’t, and vice-versa.  Having both men and women teachers brings a well-rounded view.

However dismissing an argument by attributing it to emotionalism is frankly a non-argument and as Paula said, in essence the person is admitting they have no answer.  I don’t like to win by default, and I tend to like to win by winning the person over not just winning the argument.  But I do have to agree that a non-argument in the form of an attack on one’s character, gives the win to the other person by default.
