There is no gender equality when it comes to civilizational Contributions

Recently we had another of those answers clickbait cringe worthy of some
person or troll the Internet randomly as Steve Adler, the mayor of Austin,
Texas responded to an email in anger of some guy who was angry about these
women as projections Wonder Woman (who also, perhaps illegal).
Nevertheless, a single woman, trigger warned, screening space safely must
be complied with eyes rolling and mockery by a healthy man (and woman for
that matter). Instead this guy is tripped, saying in part,
Results obtained by the second pale rate sex over almost everything great
in human history was accomplished by men, not women. If Austin is hosting
one of the men against the event, I can never visit Austin will host its
deterioration.
Then came "absolutely epic response. "From the mayor Adley
I am writing to notify you that your email account has been hacked by an
unfortunate and particularly hostile individual. Please address the
security of your account immediately, lest uninformed ranting and gender of
that person give you a bad name. After all, we men have to look at each
other!
Barf.
The merits of the next game a little closer though.
Can you imagine if someone thought you did not know that women could serve
in combat units now without exclusion?
Can you imagine if someone did not know that women account for only 14.6
percent of the military, 2.3 percent of combat deaths and there is a
strange tendency for pregnancy-mount arrow just before deployment in a
hostile region?
And if someone thought you did not know that women have invented medical
syringes, life rafts, fire escapes, central and solar heating, a
communications system in wartime radio control for torpedoes which laid the
technological basis for any Wi-Fi to GPS, and beer?
Okay, I know there are a bunch of often conflicting stories about who
invented what, but let's go with the dominant view here and run the list.

Medical syringe - Adler refers to Letitia Mumford Geer, who patented one or
at least that's what the 30 words the Wikipedia page says "one syringe hand
which is the basis for most modern medical syringes. ". In fact, there are
10 different numbers on the Wikipedia page about the invention of the
syringe. Nine of the ten entries & # 8212; including Charles Pravaz and
Alexander Wood, who developed a medical hypodermic syringe in 1853 & #
8212; are men.
Life Raft - Congratulations to Maria Beasley to patent [Not Bold] "two
improved life raft designs. "
Central and solar heating - Maria Telkes "worked on solar energy
technology" and "is known for creating the first thermoelectric power
generator in 1947 ... designing the first solar heating system for Dover
Sun House ... and the first thermoelectric refrigerator "This is good work
Maria, though somewhat specific. Anyway, I must emphasize that Augustin
Mouchot and his glorious mustache invented the earliest known solar engine.
A communication system in wartime for radio control Torpedoes - If you must
be this special, you know you're really reaching. Anyway, this refers to
Hedy Lamarr, but the story is a bit more complex than Adley leave you to
believe,
During World War II, Lamarr learned that radio-controlled torpedoes, which
could be important in naval warfare, could easily be jammed, causing the
torpedo to go off course. With the knowledge she had gained about torpedoes
her first husband, she came up with the idea to create a kind of frequency
hopping signal that could not be followed or stuck. She contacted his
friend, composer and pianist George Antheil, to help develop a device to
do, and he succeeded in synchronizing a player piano mechanism with
miniaturized radio signals. They drafted drawings for frequency hopping
system they patented. [Not fat again]


This "laid the technological foundation" for GPS and WiFi? I guess it did,
with many, many, many other things. And of course, Roger Easton (GPS) and
Vic Hayes (WiFi) should take full credit (although there were many other
men involved for each).

Beer - Oh for the love of fuck ... Apparently, the author Jane Peyton did
the trick as the beer was invented by women. But beer goes back to
prehistoric times, perhaps as far back as 9500 BC. Honestly, we also have
some idea who invented beer as we do about who invented the fire. (Other
than we can probably assume that it is the men in both cases.)

Back to our intrepid Mayor & # 8230;
And I hesitate to imagine how you would be embarrassed if someone thought
you were angry that a private company has been carrying out a business
opportunity by booking a screening this weekend for women to see a
superhero film.
And imagine how annoyed you would be if people read this and wonder why you
spend all this time to answer some random email in a way that you could get
picked up by upworthy rather than actually doing your job as mayor of a big
city.
The contribution to human civilization
We hear a lot about how "there would be no war if women were in charge"
and "toxic masculinity" and some great achievements of the women we
underestimate and so on. We keep hearing about how we need this or that to
women. One of many examples is that Stephen Colbert bloviating "Did you
know that the first computer, ENIAC was programmed by six mathematicians?
If it weren t for women vanguard, we may not have computers at all ".
Is anyone really stupid enough to believe that we have computers there was
no women's contribution? It's amazing how people delude themselves into
believing this or overhyped the contribution of Catherine Johnson at NASA
or Ada Lovelace inspired the modern computer or many other myths.
In fact, it reminds me of that old meme:

And male response:

Normally, common decency and politeness would claim we let the contribution
of men disproportionately wildly ignored. But with all the anti-men and
procuring hysteria rare contribution of women to the highest levels of
society, the record should be set straight.
Indeed, men's contribution to science is overwhelming. On the site
ScienceHeroes.com, he requested that science has saved the lives of more
than 5.34 billion people. And although these figures are difficult to
measure, they are certainly arguable. The credits that savings to more than
a billion are two teams:

Fritz Haber and Carl Bosch (synthetic fertilizers): 2,720,000,000 lives
saved
Karl Landsteiner and Richard Lewisohn (blood transfusions): 1,094,000,000
lives saved

Only those four men may have saved more lives than the total who died in
all the wars in history. The site listed the top 105 scientists. So I
calculated the male and female figures. For teams, I gave credit to every
scientist for the proportional number of life of their invention is
estimated to have saved. Here's the final tally:

Men: 98 scientists, 5,534,198,714 lives saved
Women: 7 scientists, 50,578,286 lives saved
Report: Scientists - 14 to 1, saving lives - 109-1

If you think of inventions really change the world, essentially all were
men:

Printing Press (Johannes Gutenberg)
Steam Engine (Thomas Newcomen and James Watt)
Bulb (Thomas Edison)
Avion (The Wright Brothers)
Computer (Allen and other Turing)
Internet (Tim Berners-Lee and others)

Sorry Hollywood, the men did.
Charles Murray actually had the task to categorize the great pioneers
between 800 BC and 1950 in its human Achievement book. He used a
historiometric study that analyzes the space devoted to each individual in
the history of neutral texts. In all, he comes up with 4002 significant
figures in the fields of science, medicine, technology, philosophy, music,
art and literature. Of these, only 88, or 2.2 percent are women.
Women were simply left? Unlikely. Murray discusses books about women in
science and finds no entry that should have been included in its own
analysis, but were missed by traditional sources.
The woman was the highest score Murasaki Shikibu, who came third in the
Japanese literature. Marie Curie was the second woman senior officer, who
arrives in 14th position in physics (which is actually behind her husband
rarely mentioned Peter, who placed 10).
As for the Nobel Prize go, Murray again
In the first and second half respectively of the century, women have won
four and seven awards in the sciences, and five and four awards in
literature. In percentage terms, the proportion has decreased slightly.
This is 4% of the price (not including the price of peace, men have gained
disproportionately and) from 1900 to 1950 and 3 percent from 1951 to 2000.
This should put to rest the idea that only reason men have reached more is
because of discrimination. Is anyone arguing that there was no
discrimination against women in the second half of the 20th century as the
first?
No woman had won the Nobel Prize in economics until 2009 and none had won
the Fields Medal in mathematics until 2014.
Murray exam The leaves of significant figures in the economy, architecture
and engineering, business, politics and the army, but we can expect that
the results would be similar. Indeed, whether good or bad, progress is
almost always driven by men. Of all the religions that have occurred, for
all their virtues and defects, almost all were initiated by men. From
Abraham to Jesus, Muhammad and Joseph Smith Zarathustra and Siddhartha
Gautama. The only notable exception is Mary Baker Eddy, who started the
Christian Science denomination of Christianity. I guess Wicca started by
women too, particularly Doreen Valiente.
The great secular thinkers, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Seneca, Kant,
Locke, Hume and Descartes to Confucius, Lao Tseu, Adi Shankara and Ibn
Khaldun were, of course, almost all men.
The greatest statesmen (many of which were, of course, not so great) of
Cyrus the Great and Jules César to Charlemagne to Tokugawa Ieyasu to George
Washington in Winston Churchill were obviously men.
Virtually all large Standard Oil and US Steel companies Microsoft and
Google were founded by men. Only 14 of the 100 richest people in the US are
women. Most of them were of inheritance (especially by Sam Walton or
fortune of James Cox) or marriage. Some have become major players in the
company of their father, started as Abigail Johnson. But only one has
started the business from the ground, Marian Ilitch, who started Little
Caesar Pizza with her husband Michael. And when you look back in history,
it is even more one-sided.
Wealth creation is primarily the domain of men. In fact, from January 2017,
women accounted for only 28 of the CEOs for companies in the S & amp; P
500. In other words, 5.6 percent, a fact that feminists complain
incessantly.
It's the same could be said for charities. The largest charity in the
United States is the United Way, which was founded by four men and a woman.
Among the ten largest charities, seven were initiated by men, one by three
women (Boys and Girls Club of America) and the Army of Hi was started by
William and Catherine Booth.
List of Rolling Stone's 100 greatest musicians of all time including 10
women and two bands with men and women. The others are all men. Is it just
because The Rolling Stone & # 8212; the magazine that published the most
flagrant rape of Tawana Brawley hoax from & # 8212; is misogynistic? I'll
let you decide. I did not feel the need to rely on their list of the 100
greatest guitarists. Their list of 50 comics is, despite the rather blatant
political correctness (Wanda Sykes made the list), yet most men.
A brief reading list in the National Inventors Hall of Fame Inductees shows
the vast majority of their inductees were men too. All 100 directors of 100
best films AFI selected in 2007 movies were men. Three quarters of the
Pulitzer Prize for non-fiction from 1995 to 2014 went to men and even in
2011, 64 percent of the price for journalism. The architect of the Burj
Khalifia & # 8212; the tallest building in the world & # 8212; Adrian Smith
was. Number two goes to the Chinese man Jun Xia. David Childs was the
architect of the Freedom Tower, which is the tallest building in the United
States.
A little phallic, yet incredibly impressive
The vast majority of these architects were men. Just as the engineers who
designed and supervised many of the most beautiful wonders of the world,
things like the Parthenon in the ancient world to things like the Chunnel
today.
And of course, it was almost exclusively men who built these buildings
along most everything else. This goes back to prehistoric times when men
were hunting, shelter-building and defense. Today, we must not neglect the
average man, who dominate in professions such as construction, maintenance
and engineering that maintain the company's infrastructure and other
critical professions such as doctor, entrepreneur and firefighter. On the
other hand, women work mostly in professions helping and caring often
simulate maternity (and sometimes replace partially, as in the case of
child care workers).
Back to the pioneers, we find that the early jazz is often attributed to
Buddy Bolden. We do not know who invented the Blues, but its first
founders, Robert Johnson to W. C. Handy were men. Rock is credited to Chuck
Berry. Rap DJ Herc Koll.
James Naismith invented basketball, Abner Doubleday invented baseball,
Walter Camp invented football, James Creighton invented hockey and a group
of ancient Athenians, almost certainly male, started the original Olympic
Games .
The highest a woman has never ranked in the world rankings of FIDE of great
chess masters is eighth. And despite Serena Williams complain that the
allegations of John McEnroe, it would be ranked around "700" in men's
tennis, Williams and her sister were obliterated by Karsten Braasch, who is
ranked 203rd in the men's tennis at the time. And for all that talk about
how the US women's soccer team is underpaid, well, he does not lose to a
team boys aged 15 years 5-2. Indeed, in all areas, women sport individual
files are nearly that of a boy of 14 or 15 years.
You can go and all sorts of things.
Women are not useless. They are essential for raising children, taking care
of the house, inspiration and help their husbands and usually cause less
violence and chaos then men. But the endless feminist propaganda has
obscured the truth and made the male as being somewhere between nothing and
evil in the minds of many people. These truths against flagrant and
signaling under Mayor Adley, etc. should be put to rest.
Men's contribution to civilization is almost incalculable and certainly
essential.
