I figured a close stereotype for men, would be that they should all be farmers. The thing is, there are under two million farmers in the US as of 2023. So statistically, an equivalent occupation/role should have a larger number.

Why a man though - why not just a person?
What is it that means that men ought to be able to do those things, but not women?
Cause in thier minds why is she not in the kitchen pertpually doing chores. Women aren’t people to them. Took so much effort just to give women the right to vote.
Because in general men are good with things and women are good with people. There’s a good reason the vast majority of construction workers, mechanics and engineers are men and it’s not (only) because women aren’t welcome on those fields.
I think that’s a massive over-generalisation to be honest. Women are just as capable at any of those things.
I’m not sure why you would want to look down on people who don’t know how to do a thing, but at least do it equally.
Ofcourse it’s a generalization. I’m speaking of all men and women as groups. This isn’t about individuals.
If you pick random 100 men and random 100 women from the population and give them the task of building/fixing something the men are going to perform better every single time.
All my best workers in shop and on site have been women, hands down. No egos; they listen and learn super-fast; they take great pride in acccomplishment and quality; they don’t tell me how their dad did it or that they’ve “just always done it this way”.
