If you have two *male* applicants for the same position, and both are
equally qualified, you have to choose one based on something, whether
it's (1) personality, (2) looks, (3) clothing, whatever. In other
words, you have to discriminate between the two applicants. That may be
shallow, but it's not bigoted.
