All the women in my family are more successful than the men so I not sure if that applies in today's world as much. But in the past men have dominated over women a lot. As a matter of fact women were not even allowed to go to school or participate in voting.
Women fought for their rights as time went along. Women's suffrage is all about women's right to vote so that their decisions can make a difference also.
Many corporations today employ women who are college educated. Not only that, there are many women who are talented and are celebrities that everyone admire. All the wars in the world are caused by men and fought by men as well.
Today there is the WNBA, women's volley ball, women in golf and women wrestling, boxing and doing all kinds of stuff only men used to do before.
The only thing that remains is positions of power such as the presidency which men have been dominating as well as control of large corporations which also male CEO' s have been controlling.
But many women are rising to positions of entrepreneurship and as well as celebrity statuses.

Men were "built" to be more efficient. A woman's place in this world is to just live. But a man was meant to be hard-working and strong, and share the load of things women must go through. But these days, many men are lazy. Their so-called power goes to waste or, worse, goes toward evil acts. Power corrupts. Why is it so that more men than women are crazy? Yet we have to deal with more emotions that can make anyone crazy. We still manage to keep our sanity intact. So the power given to men, like childbirth, is a blessing and a curse. More a curse, for some.
The thing about man's power also is that it's short-lived. Woman's endurance is more long-term. Though we get it in smaller doses, we get it in steady doses. Men have bursts of energy/power and suddenly crash. It's the way we're made in abilities, too. Average woman is moderately good to okay at many things. Average man is great and exceptional at a few things, and a fumbling fool at others. So I guess, men have more force but women have more staying power.
So saying that men are more powerful is blind-sighted. Women have a different type of power. It's just that you can't see it.

God made man physically stronger, and he made women emotionally stronger. He created them with different traits to balance the harmony of the mankind. Although efforts from both the sexes are required to create that harmony, these opposite traits infact work well if both of them could co-oparate with each other.
But instead we start boasting about our positive traits and nag about our duties towards the mankind. As a result we created a feeling of unequality among the sexes. Just as air and water, two very different forms, are equally important for us to live; man and woman two different wonderful creations are equally important for the progress of mankind...

Ever gave birth to a child? Would have been jumping up and down for nine months.
Shakti (Strength) is another name for woman (in Indian tradition).
Now go back and correct the question.

I don't believe in Creation and I don't agree with your assessment. Men have more body strength than woman so that they can hunt, build and defend us while we carry and raise the babies. Let me tell you something, I have had mnstrual cramps that could bring a man to his knees let alone childbirth. The physical and mental challenged of raising children take more than you realize. Call your mother and thank her. And don't let me catch you claiming women are weak again.

if man is powerful physicaly then a woman is powerful mentally. so both have strengths and weakness of their own. it would be better to say that man and woman are equal partners than trying to make one look smaller than the other.

Men and women are complementary to each other. Men are physically stronger. Women are mentally stronger. Women are more creative. Men are supplementing to convert the idea into action.
