      A sexist might say "Women are dumb! Men are smarter and have better judgement and .. (etc)" - this is also false.

      Why *do* they work? With sexism, the actual pathway is something like that human genders, due to the biological cost asymmetry between pregnancy and ejaculation, are asymmetrically balanced and *everything* about us flows from that. Asymmetrical ≠ inferior.

      OK, but then where does the trope that men are "better" than women even come from? How did anyone even come up with this? Are forks "better" than knives? ....

      I think the only possible correct answer to this is that it comes from group dynamics interacting with the fundamental reproduction cost asymmetry between the genders; a group of men can kill the men from another group and take their women, but the reverse doesn't work.

      AFAIK there is literally no archeological or historical record of a group of women doing this and it's absurd to even think about it, whereas this happened ~ all the time the other way around.

      Men handing their daughters off to husbands at a wedding like a valuable possession but not vicer-versa? This is where it comes from. The consequence of the almost total historical absence of matriarchal societies has shaped male hierarchies to be functional...

      The dysfunctional ones got selected out. Female hierarchies never underwent this selection, or rather (almost) none of them survived. Everything you see in the gender wars basically flows from this.

      Sexism, despite often being incorrect or exaggerated, works (in the sense of producing functional outcomes like running water, rule of law and space rockets) because it favors (literally) battle-tested male hierarchies.

      Replying to @RokoMijic

      To play devil's advocate: wouldn't women also benefit from these male hierarchy sexual selections, since half their genome comes from their fathers and their male line?

      No. Slightly longer answer - "in the exact same way that peahens also 'benefit' from genes that produce ornate tails". Example gene for brain development that has a different effect in the males and females:https://academic.oup.com/mbe/advance-article/doi/10.1093/molbev/msab243/6357047 …
