Women are the smarter of the two sexes. What do mean 'used' to be?
I'm afraid I don't get what you're asking

Uhh, when were they 'smarter'?
When they were home all day with the kids doing housework?
Or, when they went toe to toe with men in the workforce and had to find their way through life without having to depend on a man?
Women are *challenged* more today and are the smarter for it. That said, the world could use some more of their feminine charm instead of their masculine ambition.

This is a great question. I use to think that if women ruled the world everything would be better. But women, instead of bringing their nurturing side to business, have emulated many of their male counterparts worst traits. It makes me rather sad. I get the pressure, and the money; but was it worth what we gave up?

Here is the "stupid" move women made in the name of "equality": they hauled their butts into the workplace in droves while simultaneously maintaining MOST of the housework, care of the children, extracurricular activities, meetings, social obligations, etc. and still finds time to get to gym, library, take a night class here and there, and find time to answer questions on Yahoo. What happened, you ask? My guess is we're brain damaged from sleep deprivation and the sheer stress of it all.

The simple answer is "feminism". Before feminism, women thought based on reasoning, compasion, love, descretion. Women harnased their feminine intelect and intuition. Since feminism, women have grown in pride, anger, and emulation. Woman are trying to think like men.
However, feminists do not understand, men thinking like men is natural. Woman trying to think and act like men is confusion. Yes, men can be compasionate, loving, use descretion, etc. Yet, the ability to put aside "compassionate" thought is natural for men. When women try to emulate this masculinity, they over act. To try to prove they can put aside emotion, women tend to become overly calous.
The only time women will regain their "wise" reputation is when they no longer feel ashame of their feminine intuition, (love, compasion, descretion). Until then, they will continue to act like immature women trying to be men.

Nothing. Men may think they are smarter, but behind every successful man there is a woman telling him what pair of pants to wear and she is holding them up.

Freedom for women came and some of them started to act as men. But don't worry the ones that didn't are still more intelligent than them.

They still are! They're just playing dumb for the guys, to let them feel big and strong! Guys got the muscles, they like the power and strength. Girls got the brains. They got the power to lead guys on.
