> I’d say everyone is for people of both genders being treated equally.

But this is not true, historically, and still today. Most people in (in some cultures) may be for treating genders equally in a lot of aspects, but I don't have to go very far on the web or IRL to find people who are not for equal treatment of genders.

But for everyone who does want to treat genders equally, learning about unconcious bias should be helpful. Learning about unconcious biases enables you to question your behaviour in order to actually treat genders equal instead of just agreeing that they should be.

What about people who, themselves, do not want to be treated equally? I have found that most women I interact with do not necessarily want to be treated equally, they want to be treated with dignity and respect. These are sometimes, but often not the same thing.

Sure if people want to be treated differently go ahead. But observing some women wanting to be treated differently (this step can go wrong!) and then applying that treatment to other women is a whole different thing.
