There are some things that some people can't do - and to do them would be a great danger to the rest of us.

If you mean equal opportunity in the sense that there are entry requirements and those that are admitted are those that achieved greater than were stipulated - female fire-fighters is fine as long as they are strong enough to do the job for example. But it still means that from birther there are many activities that some will never be able to undertake.
Equality of opportunity is meaning those who are equally qualified have an equal chance. Not in-equal because they are black, gay, etc and other conditions which do not affect the qualification of their application. Your first statements are deliberately dumb, I know you know better then that.
