The trouble is that intellectualism (beyond the grievance-based nattering that passes for “intellectualism” among certain prominent females) will always be an area where females are less advantaged for a couple of main reasons.
One reason is that the intelligence bell curve for females is narrower than for males. There are fewer retarded females but also fewer geniuses. So that automatically gives males an intellectual edge.
The other reason is that female psychology tends to be more sociable and rule-following and since intellectualism is fundamentally about questioning and re-evaluating assumptions, men will have an advantage there too.
There are exceptions of course like Gertrude Stein and Camile Pagila, but then they are mostly lesbians!

A very interesting article. I don’t agree with everything in it, but definitely worth reading.
