I don't know! I see a lot of woman bashing it seems to me like the male bashing is just women reacting to that but I may be biased in how I read stuff. I know that however nice I try to be somebody will randomly insult me every now and then (it happens about once a day) just for being female or for talking about things of interest to females. I did see PillowPet's thread but I don't think she was being very serious. Here is my opinion of some of the differences (I don't want to say better worse) First let me get this out of the way guys are physically superior as far as strength, speed all that stuff. Speed and endurance might be close but guys are ahead, strength is not close at all. So in some primitive situation where you have to hunt or fight other tribes or whatever women would have a lot of problems without guys helping them. You can get by without this in modern life but it still helps, for example moving furniture or changing a tire. Other stuff ... These are all general statements they aren't true for every guy or every girl, just on average. I think guys tend to be more direct girls tend to be more compassionate. I think in a dangerous situation girls tend to back off and guys are more likely to do it anyway. I think arrogance is probably about equal but it takes different forms, an arrogant guy might want other people to submit to him an arrogant girl wants to be the center of attention. I think girls are more socially aware and I think guys are more self sufficient. I know some of this sounds obvious or stereotypical but a lot of stereotypes are true, that is how they became stereotypes. So when you say girls aren't as dumb, I understand but I think really it's just that we are more social and less bold so we don't do as many risky things and don't yell or fight that much, I don't think it's smarter exactly we just have different things we want to prove or different ways we show off I guess.
