"by their very genetic nature women are reactive, whereas men are proactive"
What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.

You can move to Iran if you want. Nobody's stopping you. Leave us normal people and our happy, active women, behind. We'd all feel happier and safer.

This has to be some of the most mysoginistic drivel I have ever read...
Women never achieved anything? Tell this to Lise Meitner or Catherine the Great.

Women created the feminist movement. If they're so lazy, how could they start such an ambitious campaign in the first place? And why would they?
Also, you said "they tried to teach you in school that before the modern age women were so utterly oppressed, when in fact it was the lower class who was oppressed- male and female." Nowhere is it written that only one group of people can be oppressed at a time. In United States history, pretty much everyone who wasn't a white Protestant land-owning man had at least some social barrier to substantive achievements, whether social, economic or subtly psychological.

"Women never do anything of ... significant"
besides you know those rulers of great empires, those scientists, and those activists. But besides that, what have women done?

your mother raised you; not sure if that denies or confirms your thesis.

The only thing that, on a genetic level, makes any difference between men and women, has to do with our respective reproductive systems and -- although exceptions exist on both sides -- the males of our species are generally larger than the females.
As human societies made the shift from hunter-gatherer to agrarian, physical size did become more important to the society and thus, the hierarchy did tend to favor the males over the females. (and the mythology was created both to underscore and to perpetuate this)
It's not a coincidence, then, that things started to become more egalitarian as females started to enter the workforce during the World War II era but we've got a long way to go before we can achieve the equality that is still known in modern hunter-gatherer societies.

Marie Curie, Indira Gandhi, Ann E. Dunwoody (who excelled in the military, btw), Hypatia, Florence Nightingale, Eleanor Roosevelt, Sally Ride, Stephanie Kwolek, Elizabeth H. Blackburn, Barbara Jordan and a long list of accomplished and gifted women say you're a lying sack of condensed cat shit.

I guess that's why studies repeatedly show that those lazy, worthless women work more hours in the home than their male partners, even when said women are also employed full-time outside the home. Oh, wait....

So, you're jealous that the women your work with (or for) have social skills, and are also outperforming you and getting promoted over you, so you've come up with this little theory to make yourself feel less inadequate, is that about right?

Wait. Wait, wait, wait: So, what you're saying is, women can never do "anything of any real world significance?" Ever? And yet you later state that feminism is some insidious thing that's penetrated modern culture to such a degree that everyone believes the lie?
Wouldn't that... you know, be, like, something of real world significance? And quite important real world significance, if it's a part of the broader social fabric to such an extent? Despite the fact that according to your own logic, it's impossible for women to have done that? Unless you're asserting that MEN propagated the feminist movement, which we know is factually mistaken?
Honestly, I wouldn't have so much of a problem with these fuckers if they'd at least produce an argument that stood up to its own internal logic.
Oh, and fuck you Reality2010, you misogynist dirt pile; the woman I love is worth fifty of you.

In what way is raising children silliness? Is there any work more important than taking care of the next generation? Should you really entrust that to a silly and lazy person?
You don't know a single female person, do you, Mr Divorced-from-Reality? Most women are very far from lazy; taking care of children does not allow you to be lazy. Most women can do three or four things at the same time, which is often necessary to make a household work smoothly.
What have you done of "any real world significance", dearie?
In what way is the standard of 'achievement" lowered since the fifties?
Women of the upper class were forced into inactivity, as they were not allowed to have a profession and most inheritance laws favoured men. Women simply HAD to find someone to marry who could provide for them, or live in poverty.
I have very few social gatherings. My days are filled with washing clothes, doing the dishes, cooking food, biking to work, working, tending the garden, a bit of weight-lifting, shopping for food, etc.
In the larger picture, we are all frivolous and pointless, with a few exceptions like Marie Curie, Florence Nightingale and Leonardo Da Vinci.

Assuming that there was a precise division of labor among hunter-gatherers, then it had to be women who invented cooking, dyeing, medicine, chemistry, brewing, baking, pottery and fired clay, hot water, soap, brushes, weaving, knitting, gardening, and who probably discovered that certain stones that found their way into a hot fire uttered bits of malleable metals. Furthermore, since paternity was not discovered anywhere before five thousand BC and in some places not until the nineteenth century, tribes were originally organized around foremothers. Domestic animals? Little girls brought home pets...

"...endless social gatherings and parties consisting of mindless lounging around..."
It's obvious to me why no one invites you to parties. You have neither social skills, nor any understanding of social networking. In short, you're a boorish lout, and your own rant is all the proof that is needed. You need only to cultivate a complete lack of hygiene to regain your solitude should anyone ever show the slightest interest in you.

Logically, given the traditional division of labor, women probably also invented candles, lamps, furniture, paint, and varnish. Certain verses by Lao-Tse indicate that anciently, women invented a system of writing that used knotted ropes, and certain pottery designs have also been found to be writing. Now, you can deny this, but only by admitting that sex-determined divisions of labor are not predetermined or immutable.

This is the real reason women have never done anything of any real world significance and never will.
Marie Curie, Harriet Tubman, Theodora, Eleanor Roosevelt, Queen Victoria, Queen Elizabeth, Czarina Catherine, Nefertiti, Hapshetsut, and thousands of other famous women want to get in line to kick you in the nuts.

Let us not forget the mighty Eleanor of Aquitaine, who wrote the Laws of Oleron, a foundation of admiralty and international law to this day, in addition to being a warrior, a scholar, a troubador, a diplomat, and mother of Richard the Lionheart.

Also, sir, you would fit in very well with the Derevlyane, who, having attitudes like yours, got crossways of Olga of Kiev. The rest of this story is too gruesome to relate, but not unfitting for a blockhead like you.
