Let me start by admitting that I skimmed the first of your links and skipped the rest. I'll just address your presentation of your hypothesis.

Your post, as usual, is an entertaining read. Having sifted through it all I came up with two points that seem to capture its essence.

The reason that women didn't and still don't invent things is that their brains are not intended for that and

By the time serious maths and science are being taught, women have long since had a fully grown brain.

Re the first, that women's brains may be intended for eugenics and used for polishing fingernails does not exclude their capacity for other things. That said capacity may not be fully demonstrated does not mean that it doesn't exist. It may not, but you have not so demonstrated.

Re the latter, now that's intriguing.

But no matter what you do, you can't make female brains take longer to develop which is the underlying problem.

But you can teach math and science earlier, can you not? That would be the way to prove or disprove the hypothesis.
