In the modern world women are in all position involved in running countries, including leader. Knowing they were usually excluded from such work, then placing no value on the tremendous amounts of labor women have provided to build civilization has no rational basis. That attitude only helps prove a lot of "feminist" point.
Bull****

Where were all the female colonizers, female interpreters, female pioneers, female scientists, etc


And it's called a "realist view"


If I wanted to go sexist I would say that women are worthless and offer nothing to the world


Come on now, are you even trying?

You need to read deeper before posting. Did I not say women were excluded from most elite educated fields? You ignored that.

The bolded is EXACTLY what you did by denying that women played part in building civilization and that's my point. You prove feminsts points. You completely discounted their contributions and hard work because it's "female."

You refusing to comprehend the meaning of mine and even you own statements is not, "me not trying." I don't post lightly.

BTW, there were female pioneers and the rest, not huge numbers, but the west in particular was a place women could achieve more. Most men were not scientists or educated anything either. That was for a few elite men.

Except why should we care about past contributions in this case
Women now more than ever probably offer to the world a lot.

Why should we care about men's past contributions? IDK, but that's what I was initially responding to. I'm personally more interested in the present and future.

Why is that?
Men do all the hard, hazardous, dangerous, dirty and skilled work that has low reward. Sure there is the one in a million exception and some women do menial work too. I've done some hard jobs at times and if there was any women around they always got the easiest and most desirable tasks.

White heterosexual men do rule our country....

old white men at that !

America has a population of 320 Million...

Blacks make up 45 Million of our population...

Hispanics are 50 Million...which makes the two dominant minorities 1 out of every 3 Americans yet we have a Trump administration that doesn't reflect the populace.



I'm still trying to figure out where to put Ben Carson though....I love crazy black conservatives like him and Kanye !

It's not old whites' fault that most of the young and "diverse" are extreme left wingers.

Why shouldn't we?

Most of the world was still built by men and this includes even a lot of the laws that protect you
