    You must be hoping the Scots break off from Britain.

    PAA: On the same basis that Chazal had. You’re suggesting that their lack of education is the cause of their lower intellectualism. But Chazal said farkert; their lower intellectualism is why they shouldn’t be educated. (Also, even today they don’t “do the same things as men” nor should they.) And why try to pigeonhole a nishtaneh hateva argument for essentially the purpose of trying to advance a political desire of equality.

    Why would the boys be stupid enough to give up their advantage by jumping into dating early and creating a greater demand for girls and therefore reducing their likelihood of being able to choose a top girl?

    PAA: Perhaps it is possible to say that. But there’s no realistic or scientific basis to say that. (I suppose nishtaneh hateva could mean people now eat differently or blow their noses differently than in the past; but in reality there’s no basis to say those things changed.) The seculars claim that women are not only currently intellectual equals but that they have always been intellectual equals, and that nothing changed physically or intellectually to make them more equal in contemporary times but rather they claim that they were suppressed in the past.
