Men are the creators and innovators and developers. Men are problem solvers at the core. Always been our innate talent/ability.
Women may gestate a baby, but men make the world worth living in through our inherent natural problem solving abilities.
************************************************************
What Nature intended for women they do well. And while there are always exceptions, in the main women are too emotional in their approach to problem solving which costs them any sustained ability to be pragmatic (as you said).
To be clear, I didnt do any comparisons as to why women are not the big problem solvers. Everyone knows the unique main inherent ability/talent of women. Not everyone knows/recognizes the unique inherent natural ability/strength of men.
Both are needed for civilization.
