The Court argues that two other decisions-- Phillips v. Martin Marietta Corp. , 400 U.S. 542, 91 S.Ct. 496, 27 L.Ed.2d 613 (1971) (per curiam ), and Los Angeles Dept. of Water and Power v. Manhart , 435 U.S. 702, 98 S.Ct. 1370, 55 L.Ed.2d 657 (1978) --buttress its decision, but those cases merely held that Title VII prohibits employer conduct that plainly constitutes discrimination *1775because of biological sex. In Philips , the employer treated women with young children less favorably than men with young children. In Manhart , the employer required women to make larger pension contributions than men. It is hard to see how these holdings assist the Court.
