The Bible is one record of this conspiracy. There were no charitable schools for girls in England (or anywhere else I know of) while boys had many endowed for them. Harvard was founded in 1640 or so? When were women admitted? The first coeducational college was Oberlin in the mid-1800's, the first woman's college about the same time -- 200 years later (after the American enlightenment.) The silence of women in church was prescribed by St. Paul. Don't make me look it up.
I would have thought that the lack of women's education almost everywhere until the 19th century would be accepted as evidence of religions opposition to women. Today, the Church forbids the priesthood to women, largely on the example of Jesus's exclusion of women from the Apostolate.
All history, I think, is evidence of this conspiracy. As you know, documentary proof of conspiracy is quite difficult. We only see the overt acts in history, not the planning and the plotting.
