Equality is having most city councils be mixed, and a roughly even number of all men or all women councils where most candidates are all omen or all men. Not every council needs to be split, but at least one of the underrepresented group is a positive as a counterbalance to all the ones that are all men.
Ironic seeing as Paul the apostle didn't think much of women.
Well, they are going to have to do everything perfectly. One screw up of any kind and for the next ten years every discussion of diversity or women in leadership positions is going to include a Republican saying, "Yeah, well just look at what they did to St. Paul."
They will say that while ignoring all the screw ups that councils made up entirely of men have made over the years.
I guarantee, even if they are completely perfect, they'll still get blamed for whatever fuck ups the Minneapolis city council does (for those who are unaware, Minneapolis and St. Paul are LITERALLY right next to each other)
