I believe that you raise some potentially useful points in a problematic manner. You recognise the problem of the system subjugation of females in society, argue that c.p. of females is a contributing factor to this, but then argue that females should be treated differently when it comes to c.p. because we are intrinsically different.

First, you make many generalisations that can never be quantifiably deducted. Some women claim to have benefited greatly from school c.p.; some men claim to have been terribly traumatised by it. Trauma is not gender-specific, and if trauma from c.p. is more prevalent amongst females this is no reason to assume that females are less intrinsically capable of dealing with it than males. It is much more likely c.p. accompanied by harmful social stereotypes and expectations is the problem.
