I figured a close stereotype for men, would be that they should all be farmers. The thing is, there are under two million farmers in the US as of 2023. So statistically, an equivalent occupation/role should have a larger number.

    I think that’s a massive over-generalisation to be honest. Women are just as capable at any of those things.

    I’m not sure why you would want to look down on people who don’t know how to do a thing, but at least do it equally.

      Ofcourse it’s a generalization. I’m speaking of all men and women as groups. This isn’t about individuals.

      If you pick random 100 men and random 100 women from the population and give them the task of building/fixing something the men are going to perform better every single time.
