"Gender equality" is not some kind of catch-all that means men and women can (or should) fill all roles equally, particularly when you're producing content that caters to a specific audience. Should Victoria's Secret have to stock men's underwear because of "gender equality"? Or is it pretty well understood that their primary consumers are women, so they offer a product only women wear? Similarly, there is no market segment of the UFC, or MMA in general, that is large enough and specific enough for such a promotion to gain any benefit from employing ring boys, regardless of what you say about "gender equality." If the genders aren't represented equally in the consumers, there's no reason for them to be represented equally in the promotion.
But but but somebody wants something!
