With the same opportunity would women be just as successful as men?

In my personal opinion, I think the answer is blatantly no. That’s not to put women down but it’s just saying it how it is. Women graduate far more than men and still, all the richest women in the world got their from marriage or divorce. I would argue women have more opportunity than men and are favoured, even though they don’t build the entire world.

Would would be just as successful as men

Wouldn’t wouldn’t be as successful as men

I don't think men are more successful then women. I mean sure most of the top CEOs are men. But those guys are crazy. They work all the time. They live with the most insane pressures. Like just read into their lives. 99% of the men on here could never do what those guys do and 99% of women couldn't either. I don't think being nuts is successful.

For what ever reason, most of the crazies are men. Most serial killers are men and so are most CEOs. It's just how the world works. I don't think men are more prone to be crazy. I just think men are more diverse. XY has to letters XX only has one. but that's just my 2 cents

As a result of differential brain function, men and women have important cognitive and perceptual differences. These differences lead to different ways of interacting with the world and other people, such that men can interact with nature and mechanical objects and concepts more effectively and adaptively, and women tend to interact with other people more effectively. It is very difficult to separate these effects from the effects of contemporary education and socialization differential by gender.

Arguably, if education and socialization were equivalent for both genders, the initial biologically determined differences I mentioned might be minimized or disappear - or might not. It's hard to know.

They could but because men are still expected to provide, they are far more motivated to be successful. Men are much more ruthless in the workplace trying to climb the corporate ladder because of this. Women still want the man to make more money than them and few would marry down economically so being successful for a woman limits her relationship options unless she's willing to date down.

Your proxy foundation for this is the.00001 of women in the world?

There's NO WAY women in general would be as successful as men. They would SURPASS men without breaking a sweat.

"Successful" means different things to men and women. A woman wants her man to be successful in the male sense so that she can afford to be successful in the female sense.
