[Nom De Plume]

‘Behind every great man is a great woman’.

There is a literal and implied meaning to that statement that shows the extent of misogynistic control.

[brian ross]

Biology tells us this fact.

Depends how it is determined, Nom. How are you determining it? Women can be stronger but generally, men are.

Who cares about brawn Brian when brains are what really count. And on that score women control intelligence, not men. Women have always controlled intelligence.

And yet men still outnumber women for the number of Nobel Prizes awarded, Nom...

Too true.. but that has less to do with intelligence and more to do with misogyny and the male ego.

Or men were just smart enough to think of the Nobel Prize before women did...

‘Behind every great man is a great woman’.

yes, telling him how wrong he is

your misandrist thoughts are evident.

I read you teasing me Bri Bri

I know that you know but does the forum know that the Nobel prize was a legacy left in the will by the chemist of the same name. At the time of his death women had no rights, no vote, no nuffin!

[Nicole]

Nom I’m curious. What’s your evidence for intelligence being passed through the female?

Why so glum, sugar plum?
Do you not like being bested by a girl?
I thought you were used to it.

[Black Orchid]

Men and women were made to compliment each other imo. Both have superior qualities that compliment the other and pitting one against each other is pointless. Neither is "superior" per se and you can't have one without the other.

Depends on where they were, Nom. They had limited rights in most of Europe and the US. Downunder, they had much greater rights. Rights however, are immaterial in this case 'cause as you note, it came from a bequest provided by a smart man, made from his own intelligence. Now, if women were as smart as you claim they are, then they would have made tons of money from their intelligence, right?

[Baronvonrort]

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Isn't the witness of a woman equal to half of that of a man?" The women said, "Yes." He said, "This is because of the deficiency of a woman's mind."

I wonder why some women stick up for Islam.
