There's another reason: nobody understands success. No 20 year old women's studies major has any idea of the effort that went into setting up infrastructure, technology, finance, law, etc that enable her to eat an artisanal cupcake in one hand while texting on her iPhone in the other. It took thousands of years of billions of people's efforts (mainly men) to put these institutions in place. Almost everybody takes this for granted and doesn't bother to find out how/why it happened. The farther we advance, the less obvious men's efforts at setting up and maintaining civilizations are.
If civilization had been left in female hands we would still be living in grass huts. - Camille Paglia
