"If civilization had been left in female hands, we would still be living in grass huts" - Camille Paglia
Virtually everything that humans have ever accomplished, invented, built, conquered, discovered, and created has been done by men. I do not believe this is a result of "patriarchy". If you think men and women are equally capable on either planes of intelligence or physicality you are willfully ignoring all evidence available which clearly points to the contrary. Women are equally valuable to men, the role of mother is of the utmost importance, but they are nowhere near equally capable and every shred of evidence bears that out. Look at the record books, look at sports, look at the history books, look at Nobel prizes, look at chess champions. In any field of competence or competition men are invariably the most competent and win the competition.
"'\look at how a male dominant society has had a history of male dominance. I don't think its a result of the patriarchy"
