“As an aside the belief that women were intellectually inferior was near universal in the times of Chazal so it doesn’t detract from them that they believed that to be the case.”
According to the Rambam, most women don’t have their intellect focused (ein daatan mechuvanot IIRC) as a man would. He does not say that most women don’t have the ability, but rather, as I would put it, most just don’t have the desire to focus and stay focused. From what I see, BYM does have it.
I remember learning Ketubot with my wife a number of years ago (before kids). I was quite impressed with a question that she brought up after we learned the Gemara and Rashi on the sugya. It was Tosfot’s question.
BYM, I wish you much hatslacha in learning !
