Being in control over your choices and unconscious decisions, is something all humans should "come to accept."

The point I am making is that humans are departing from that archaic part of the mind-- the "reptillian brain." ( @sean-king likes evolutional psychology, so he may be interested in this, too) Carl Sagan wrote about it in The Dragons of Eden.

"The reptilian complex, also known as the R-complex or "reptilian brain" was the name MacLean gave to the basal ganglia, structures derived from the floor of the forebrain during development. The term derives from the idea that comparative neuroanatomists once believed that the forebrains of reptiles and birds were dominated by these structures. MacLean proposed that the reptilian complex was responsible for species-typical instinctual behaviors involved in aggression, dominance, territoriality, and ritual displays."

It's essentially the (very small, now) part of the brain that thinks: food, sex, sleep.

In my experience, I barely identify with that part of my mind. As an evolved, evolving species, we are capable of (and have accomplished) changing and growing the structures of more important parts of the brain.

So I ask myself, when people think women and men are so different:

Isn't it a bit reductive?

Is saying women have an inherent "power," or "sexual power," putting them above men-- is that not dehumanizing as well when we put them on a pedestal?

Is that idea, that women do have a secret power, by definition inequality?
