"Civilization came through two things chiefly: the home, which developed those social dispositions that form the psychological cement of society; and agriculture, which took man from his wandering life as hunter, herder, and killer, and settled him long enough in one place to let him build homes, schools, churches, colleges, universities, civilization. But it was woman who gave man agriculture and the home; she domesticated man as she had domesticated the sheep and the pig. Man is woman's last domestic animal, and perhaps he is the last creature that will be civilized by woman. The task is just begun".(will durant, a philosopher)

There is a lot of truth to that. Women are far from perfect but they do tend to calm society down and point it toward family and home which is the building block for everything else.

It is a man's world and it's always will be. The history of mankind is the history of men (and a couple of angry women).
