Haim, those are stereotyping cliches. There is actual data. It's not a matter of "intuition". <therefore giving the false intuitive feeling that men are more talented or smarter. Due to the fact that men are intellectual inferior to women > You are really just stating what you want the situation to be, in compliance with current gender ideology. History is not filled with women. It's filled with men, because history has been about genocidal geopolitical territorial alpha male dominance hierarchies. Women such as Cleopatra are an afterthought. No doubt you have heard of Julius Caesar, without whom Cleopatra would not have rated highly. After Julius was murdered, Augustus became more important while Cleopatra was a failure. Ignoring the fact that women's brains are fully grown three years before men's is the basic issue. That's not the only difference of course. There are the testosterone and other drives which make males risk-taking fighters while women are cave-dwelling conservative protectors. Watch any gang of primates when drama is on. Females and infants to the rear, males to the front for battle. The Y chromosome is there for a reason. It still seems to surprise some people, but men and women are not the same. Marie Curie... cherchez l'homme.... She shared her 1903 Nobel Prize in Physics with her husband Pierre Curie and with the physicist Henri Becquerel. Her daughter Irène Joliot-Curie and son-in-law, Frédéric Joliot-Curie, would similarly share a Nobel Prize. She was the sole winner of the 1911 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Sklodowska-Curie was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the only woman to date to win in two fields, and the only person to win in multiple sciences. Mqurice

First the North tries to hold on to its position. Keep the South in the dark, starve it of capital in order to fleece the south to subsidize its living standards. This went from 1971 Nixon Shock until 1997. Last time it worked was during the Asian Meltdown. Second stage the above strategy was untenable. North milk its own reserve currency status to keep its standing. Europe copycats the US. Creates its own currency to compete to USD in order to keep its living standards. North prints money and creates credit at a high rate. Excess money trickles down to the south. South pays debt in order to stop being fleeced. North loses the teat of the cow that was feeding them. Excess liquidity tramples over finances of the North. North no longer has third parties paying their bills. North faces the abyss. Europe stars cannibalizing itself. What next?

By nature women are wiser than men because they need to care for the offspring’s. Due to the fact that men are more aggressive and take more risk in addition to the pressure to be a provider men are compensated more and therefore giving the false intuitive feeling that men are more talented or smarter. I bet we find that generalisation becomes far far less apparent in the next 20 years or so.. Due to the fact that men are intellectual inferior to women they went on to repress them, Repress yes.. but mostly because women were stuck with the kids and were physically weaker in a time when that counted more.. or just because they could.. That is less relevant now and becoming less relevant as each year passes .... Just think of Cleopatra, or Joan de ’Arc or Princes Sheva, or Madame Curie etc. The most heroic women rarely got written up.. they didn't write history ... doubtless there are far far more than we have ever heard about..:O)

Men have fatter tails than women in their intelligence distribution, even if the averages are about the same. As a result there are many more extreme geniuses among men as well as many more complete idiots. The idiots don't count. The geniuses are the inventors and nobel prize winners.

Due to the fact that men are intellectual inferior to women they went on to repress them, with Islam a great example. In most families after all, the mother is the dominant figure and knows how to navigate the intricacies of family life. Reminds me of the joke, which I'll dramatically shorten to the punch line, of an exchange between a young boy and girl discussing whether its' better to be a boy or a girl.. Eventually the boy tries to frustrate the girl by whipping down his pants and saying "well, I have one of these and you don't".. The girl goes crying into to the house to her mommie.. only to emerge a few minutes later with a glorious smile on her face.. And she tells the boy.... "My mommy says I have one of these.. and with one of these, I can have as many of THOSE as I want..."... Hawk
