thugged_out, I think that some of the arguments made here are condescending and do not account for the centuries of oppression against women across all civilizations. There's still no level plain field out there (and there's never been)...us men have always enjoyed a significant advantage... If given equal opportunity and environment, there's no reason to believe that women won't perform as well as men. I can feel the pain in having to let go of the status-quo, but sooner or later, it will happen... So we'd better embrace it as a good thing, rather than come up with idiotic excuses to defend our "superior status by birth" in society.
