Prof T... is a Man. But a decent enough one.

I believe in one of the History of Middle-Earth, Prof T mentioned that the Elves are equally talented in both gender. Both could bare arms when needed, but more often, Prof T ascribe the female gender with all the gentler characteristics.

I suppose it would always be true that gender equility is just an illusion, though.
