>>16586573In practical tests of information retention, I'm sure women compete with men just fine. This is why woman now dominate the education system that has grown to reward a lack of inventive thinking through the years. However, women have no environmental pressure to succeed at anything. Women can do anything and be anything, but don't you dare hold them to any standards despite they're supposedly limitless potential.
Women don't really want to compete. Just look at chess. It's a purely intellectual sport, there are no barriers preventing a woman from being a top player, but women are basically nonexistent on a professional level for chess. It's not that women are stupid in the sense that they're incompetent, they just aren't designed to think independently or be self-driven. They want to be accepted, they want to be rewarded by the largest perceived authority for doing what they're told and believing what they're told to believe. Liberal women defer to the government, conservative women defer to religion. They both love deferring to celebrities which is why it's basically impossible to find a woman who is anti-LGBT even if she identifies as conservative. A conservative male atheist is rare, but a conservative female atheist is basically a unicorn. Women are often seen as the more emotional sex, and that's true in many ways, but when it comes to climbing the social ladder women are frighteningly unscrupulous and pragmatic.
