It's not original information to infer that men think men are superior or women think women are superior. Or, simply that men feel they can relate more to other men, & women relate more to women (precisely because they share similar life experiences)

The terms "men" & "women" don't encapsulate the diversity of personality differences, gender perception, etc (& don't include humans that are physiologically "children". On there way to being anatomically " adult")

@ScienceCommunicator @ljrk @lisamelton @beunice The power differential makes the difference. Humans with coercive power tend to set themselves as the norm and those they find outside it are, in their view, subordinate. It's not that women find other women superior to men but rather, reminding the world that ignoring our talent is an opportunity loss. Same for other disempowered groups. Pride in group members' achievements despite adversity is not inversion of power dynamics.
