It's a weird thing that people who talk so much about systems of power which manifest socially also seem to assume that women have no power to influence a social environment when, in fact, we almost certainly have more on average.

I'd really like to take all this stuff and remove the contradictory ideological moralising & pull out gender observations which have been being made consistently in various forms for hundreds & even thousands of years & show what evolutionary psychology has to say about them.

This is not moral, no matter how much opponents say it is because it reinforces stereotypes. We're not going to lose stereotypes because they relate to an objective reality which humans won't stop noticing. We will just moralise about them in radically different ways forever.

Unless we actually work on understanding human psychology & nature from a biological & evolutionary point of view. This is actually the best countermeasure to the negative aspect of stereotypes which is moralistic generalisation. The facts don't allow for generalisations.
