Yupes, good old "benevolent" sexism.
Prejudice, just like the Far-Right, just with different "superior" and "inferior" groups.
Historically the best criteria for selecting people to positions of power is how little they want power, not gender or race.
(Personally I think that's because people who do not want power see it as a burden, and they do so because for them power is a great responsability towards many others - what sane individuals would ever want to be in a position were they can ruin the lives of countless people by making a mistake - and that's exactly the kind of people you want to entrust with it, not the ones for whom power is a form of ego-stroking or even a tools for personal upside maximization)
