Nenorociti fiind, vom urma cu un citat un paragraf preluat de pe T-Nation:

Remember that women weren't even allowed to vote until the 1920's. The notion of a woman as a physician, lawyer, or scientist was ludicrous until practically the 1980's.

Sure, most everyone knew an intelligent woman or two, but they were regarded as anomalies. Consider the following excerpt from France's most respected anthropological journal, written in 1879 by Gustave Le Bon, a student of Dr. Paul Broca's School of Anthropology:

In most intelligent races, as among the Parisians, there are a large number of women whose brains are closer in size to those of gorillas than to the most developed male brains. This inferiority is so obvious that no one can contest it for a moment; only its degree is worth discussion.

All psychologists who have studied the intelligence of women, as well as poets and novelists, recognize today that they represent the most inferior forms of human evolution and that they are closer to children and savages than to adult, civilized man. They excel in fickleness, inconstancy, absence of thought and logic, and incapacity to reason. Without doubt there exist some distinguished women, very superior to the average man, but they are as exceptional as any monstrosity, as, for example, of a gorilla with two heads; consequently, we may neglect them entirely.

Intuiesc vizual urmatorul background pentru acea perioada:
Barbatii erau pe treaba, cand nu erau beti, creand, producand, inventand diverse, iar femelele stateau toata ziua sa isi faca poze pentru Facebook, sa isi editeze pozele pentru Hi5 (programe gen click dreapta, apply black and white), faceau scoli de machiaj, stateau cate o ora in fiecare zi la ghena blocului ca sa fumeze, pretext pentru cei slabi sa intreprinda un minim de relatii interpersonale reale, isi cumparau laptop-uri Mac fiindca aratau mai sic, IPhone-uri pe acelasi sistem, iar in geanta asemanatoare unui duffel bag de sala gaseai toata colectia Friends si Vampire Moon Twilight (?).

Lucrurile mergeau ce mergeau prin prisma sexului, dar barbatul se grabea sa termine actul - voit sau nu - ca sa se reintoarca la treaba. Dupa multa munca incununata cu succes, barbatul obosit se intorcea acasa entuziasmat sa ii povesteasca femeii despre progresele sale la inventia care va schimba lumea. Ea se machia/demachia si nu era atenta fiindca subiectele astea nu erau interesante pentru ea. Omul pleca la bar si zicea "ce tarfe-s tarfele astea, sa-mi iau gatu' pe 20j de ani!". In bar mai erau altii ca el, asa ca s-au vorbit sa scoata niste documente stiintifice prin care sa ateste ca femeile sunt proaste.
Si asta a fost.

Noi credem ca aproximativ asa s-au desfasurat lucrurile.
Intretimp, lucrurile s-au schimbat radical!
...
Ahmmm... radical!
