International Brotherhood of Men

Women may not be as weak or fragile as they look; but aren't men certainly
cleverer? Now, now; men the cleverer sex? These creatures that women fool
with a bit of face paint here, some finery there, and a {87} smile under
dimmed lights? These gulls who can be subdued with a trickle of actress'
tears, or confused with a sliver of thigh showing through a split in the skirt?
These fools who, down through history, have been stuck with clearing the
marshes, digging the coal, and getting bloodied in battle? They the cleverer
sex? Ridiculous, simply ridiculous!
Lest we forget, cleverness is not demonstrated by getting stuck with the
hardest, dirtiest, riskiest jobs in the world, but by dumping them on others.
Even in the routine matter of winning a living, any woman who doesn't
want to be bothered with it manages to dump it on some man: either her
father, or her lover, or her husband, or her sons and sons-in-law. Yet who
are so stupid as to claim that they are cleverer than women? The very same
men who serve women!
In the West, some of these men, especially the brawny robots who are so
easily manipulated by women, will go so far as to speak of the "dumb
blonde" as the ultimate in human stupidity. Yet, to look into the matter is to
discover that the allegedly dumb blonde is no such thing! She lives rich by
expending little more than the yellowness of her hair. She uses her yellow
hair to rule the heart and pick the pocket of some blonde-obsessed macho
with more money than sense. She laughs her way through an easy life and
into a hefty inheritance. If anything, she is a great maximizer of returns,
cleverly getting the best of life with the least effort. Frankly, the proverbial
"dumb blonde" is probably the cleverest thing in the world.
And if a "dumb blonde" is actually stupid at things which need intellectual
sophistication, well why not? In her world, all the mental calisthenics she
needs is to say her wish and some blonde-struck macho would move
mountains to satisfy it. Any wonder if she should fail to exercise, let alone
build up her brainpower? Anyway, however dumb a "dumb blonde"
actually is, she is still cleverer than any man she rules through his worship
of her yellow hair; for how can one be cleverer than one's ruler? In any
case, the degree of a "dumb blonde's" dumbness is a direct measure of just
how little brains it takes a woman to rule even the cleverest of men.
It must be conceded that a beautiful woman does not need much brains to
get what she wants in life. As the Igbo say, beauty is woman's wealth.
Stupid though a beautiful woman may be, when she presses the appropriate
button on his ego, some big, clever robot will do her bidding. If she says: "I
bet you aren't man enough to lift that rock," his taunted ego would respond:
"Not man enough to lift that little pebble?" {88}
And to prove that he is indeed Superman, our Samson will sprain his spine
and risk a hernia to lift a ten-ton rock all by himself.
Faced with the chore of doing the family accounts, she will slip out of it by
saying: "Darling! You know I don't have a head for numbers. Be an angel
and give your brilliant attention to these bank statements." And to live up to
the flattery, he will work all night on the accounts while she gets her beauty
sleep. Yet, all that notwithstanding, the robot actually believes that he is
cleverer than his manipulator!
Women, alas, are not stupid. But being brilliant manipulators, they choose
to appear stupid so as not to wound the male ego with the truth. As a result,
men appear cleverer than women, but only in the dumb male's eyes. And
whenever a woman is sorely tempted to stop dissembling, and to show just
how clever she is, the female superego, alias "The Angel in the House,"
would whisper to her (as it reportedly did to Virginia Woolf):
Be sympathetic; be tender; flatter; deceive; use all the arts and wiles
of our sex. Never let anybody guess that you have a mind of your
own.72

Man's belief that he is naturally superior to woman is perhaps the greatest
tribute ever paid to male conceit by wilful blindness: evidence to the
contrary is everywhere. Just consider this. All that a woman has to do for
sex, whether for pleasure or procreation, is signal her availability and,
unless she is unspeakably ugly and stinking, there will be a stampede of
men competing for the chance to service her. The poor devils must show
their credentials, and must pass whatever test she sets, or she will deny
them access to herself. Yet it is these very males - who have to fight and
claw at one another; who have to woo, cajole, beg or even resort to rape to
gain access to her - it is these very pitiful males who proudly declare
themselves superior to her! They conveniently forget (for their own ego's
sake) to ask: What would they themselves say of candidates who claimed to
be superior to those who interviewed, judged, selected and admitted them to
positions for which they went down on their knees to beg?
The notion of male superiority is a noisy myth, a compensatory boast, born
of men's acute consciousness of inferiority. Rather than being inferior to
man, woman's superiority is incontestable, and is based on the womb. After
all, the achievements of even a Caesar are but credentials which he tenders
before a woman when he competes with rival suitors for the use of her
womb.

Where did you parrot this from?

Yeah, males are smarter

Which is why Engineering, Maths and Physics are male dominated

Not even 20% of things are built by women
