Why is there an assumption that men are biologically superior to women?
I think the original reason was that women got pregnant, and were thus weakened at times. I agree with you, however. Definitely, if attributes were reversed, internal strength would be seen as superior. Notice how, on average, black men are bigger (and often stronger) than white men, and it is made into a negative, “animal-like” trait. It’s culture, and it has nothing to do with biology. Oh yes, and don’t assume anything about the physical strength too quickly. Read “The Frailty Myth” by Colette Dowling. It’s very well researched, and it basically proposes that, while men are a bit bigger, and on average a bit stronger, the difference is not nearly as great as our culture makes it.
