Re: Why are women so fucking dumb

That's what happens when your life is too easy. Women can simply afford to be dumb as bricks and believe in made up shit.

high iq. girls in the countryside do not have the time to believe in anything beyond what their priest tells them.

t. someone who knows girls in the countryside.

I also want to add the other reasons: Femaleness has become irrelevant in modern society, which is dominated by science, logic, understanding and so on. I know this sounds cliched, but in the countryside or in pre-modern times, intuition, knowledge passed from generation to generation and the like was much more important. Women had a confidence and consciousness because they passed on knowledge about sewing, washing, arts and crafts from mother to daughter, knowledge that men were excluded from accessing due to gender roles. They, in effect, used to feel unconsciously less inferior compared to men, and didn't have much of a need for feminism.

Today, when all of these female specific jobs are taken over by factories and scientific accuracy, there is nothing female that is important anymore, there is no knowledge or understanding that is exclusive to women anymore, there is no sphere where women clearly no more than women. I can cite a passage from Plato's Republic where Socrates is asking Glaucon: Aren't there professions where women are clearly more knowledgeable than any man? And he affirms. Think about how this has changed! What's still female is nowadays at the most "emotional labour", i.e. making people feel good about themselves and providing good feelings, as nurses, teachers and the like. But this isn't a "power" and it cannot be conceptualized as such outside of spiritual means.

Women are compensating this loss of esoteric female knowledge with the dark crafts, astrology and spirituality, because it seems to be a way to access knowledge that male rationality and science can not access, you cannot explain it in scientific terms so men are excluded from it. This is precisely why witchcraft is so huge and has this feminist connotation: They think it's a way to access female-only powers that men cannot have, and they gain a self-confidence and consciousness as powerful beings that matter in more ways than being Chad's cocksleeve.

It's female cope.
