Women suppressing men's drive to be great for feminist points is going to be the downfall of the West. If anything, it proves that women are good worker-drones.

How did women go from being utterly dominated to now having society tilted in their favour then?

Clearly women are the more intelligent gender to orchestrate this grand reversal

[Anonymous No.8880681]

Women are achieving better academically because they are organized, don't skip classes, take notes and so on. In my classes at least, I see 100% of the women doing this and maybe 25% of the men. They don't lack drive to achieve what they want at all.
But, also from my point of view, I think men are much more curious, while women tend to focus on the thing they like, men can get interested in a variety of topics, which doesn't mean they'll get good at it.
I truly believe that this is why women suceed, but men just seem more intelligent to me. This is my class example.

Women are doing better academically because they only pursue meme majors. Real majors (STEM) are still dominated almost entirely by men, and it is harder to do well academically when you actually have to think instead of shitting out essays for your social science classes.

This is also why, despite more women going to college and "doing better academically", men still make more money on average.

women didn't changed the system, it was cuck males.

[Anonymous No.8880712]

Without the higher powers of the imagination and reason, no eminent success can be gained in many subjects. These latter faculties, as well as the former, will have been developed in man, partly through sexual selection,– that is, through the contest of rival males, and partly through natural selection,– from success in the general struggle for life; and as in both cases the struggle will have been during maturity, the characters gained will have been transmitted more fully to the male than to the female offspring. It accords in a striking manner with this view of the modification and re-inforcement of many of our mental faculties by sexual selection, that, firstly, they notoriously undergo a considerable change at puberty, and, secondly, that eunuchs remain throughout life inferior in these same qualities. Thus man has ultimately become superior to woman. It is, indeed, fortunate that the law of the equal transmission of characters to both sexes prevails with mammals; otherwise it is probable that man would have become as superior in mental endowment to woman, as the peacock is in ornamental plumage to the peahen.
>Charles Darwin

Women have been discouraged from genres such as sculpture that require studio training or expensive materials. But in philosophy, mathematics, and poetry, the only materials are pen and paper. Male conspiracy cannot explain all female failures. I am convinced that, even without restrictions, there still would have been no female Pascal, Milton, or Kant. Genius is not checked by social obstacles: it will overcome. Men's egotism, so disgusting in the talentless, is the source of their greatness as a sex. [...] Even now, with all vocations open, I marvel at the rarity of the woman driven by artistic or intellectual obsession, that self-mutilating derangement of social relationship which, in its alternate forms of crime and ideation, is the disgrace and glory of the human species.

Men held women down for thousands of years while women have had equal rights for only a few hundred. Who's the superior sex here? Women's rights are only allowed to be a thing under industrial capitalism. If we went back to actually having to work for things (ie a war) society would revert back to traditional gender roles, because traditional gender roles are efficient.
