In this post, we enlist 5 noteworthy reasons which indicate why women are better than men in a general sense of the phrase. Before we begin, let’s acknowledge the fact that this sounds a little prejudiced and biased at the first glance, but we assure you it isn’t. We urge you to read this article with an open mind. We have tried our best to stick to logical facts only. Everything that we have written here is based on general observation of the masses. Exceptions are always there, and we truly respect the contributions of men over the years in the fields of science, medicine, spirituality, art, etc.

That being said, there is an ocean of intrinsic qualities which make women better leaders, nurturers, service providers, and much more hardworking individuals as compared to men. This is not to undermine the capabilities of the latter. But on a collective front, women have had to struggle every step of the way even for basic human rights like the right to vote. And this is what makes their efforts extraordinary. Men have been driving the society for ages now. They have held positions of power since the inception of time. And they have misused it repeatedly to suit their own ends.

Everytime men have waged war on each other, women and children have become the natural victims. Throughout history, not once have we had a female dictator who caused the deaths of millions of innocent people for absolutely no reason at all. Women don’t partake in crimes focused against men. Women don’t partake in acts like gangrape, acid attacks, child abuse, terrorism, etc. Again, exceptions are always there. But if we look at the figures, maximum number of such crimes are committed by men alone. With this into consideration, we think it’ll be safe to say that women tend to display certain behavioural strengths which give them a unparalleled advantage over men.

Let us move on to explaining 5 important reasons which bolster the fact that women are better than men in most aspects of life.

Women carry the gift of life

God chose women to carry the gift of life. This is the first factor which indicates that women are better than men. Nothing in this world can replace this one predominant quality possessed by women. No matter how far our technology may reach, we will never be able to create an artificial being capable of conceiving another life form. This responsibility has been bestowed upon women by nature itself and for good reason. The most crucial facet of all is procreation. It supersedes everything else we know of and care about. This makes women indispensable to our fabric of life and reality.

Not only do women possess the power to nurture life, but they also endure a great deal of suffering as part of this responsibility. Menstruation is a complex process that causes significant physical, mental and emotional pain and discomfort to our bearers of life on a periodic basis. What’s even more commendable is that over the years, women have learned to not let this excruciating hurdle stop them from going about their daily chores. They simply pad-up and move on like nothing’s wrong. They deliver the jobs they have been assigned in their places of work. They continue to take care of their families and loved ones, all the while bleeding in the name of a responsibility that they never asked for.

Women possess stronger willpower

This is the second factor which indicates that women are better than men. When we look at the tasks that any working woman is supposed to complete on a daily basis, we get a clear sense of roughly how strong a willpower they can actually exhibit. From working during the day, to engaging in household activities before and after, to raising well-groomed children, women know how to maintain an excellent balance between all spheres of their lives. Add to this the time when they undergo pregnancy, followed by when they’ve got to take care of their newborns, it’s just fascinating to see someone give so much of themselves for the benefit of their near and dear ones.

Further, they face subtle, and sometimes exceedingly obvious, instances of discrimination wherein their skills and capabilities are preposterously underestimated by a male-dominant society. Here, women are not only required to put their best foot forward in order to pass with flying colors, but are also forced to steer through all the disempowering obstacles which are hurled at them every now and then. And let’s not forget about the sexual advances, inappropriate comments, physical and mental threats that they tolerate and fight off every other day. All this and they still manage to come out at the top anyway. It’s true that men have to struggle a lot as well. But these are generic struggles shared just as commonly by women. On the contrary, in addition to facing the said generic struggles, women also have to go through struggles of their own; struggles which are purely gender-specific, likes the ones mentioned above.

For these reasons, any reasonable and rational individual will most definitely agree with us when we say that women possess stronger willpower than men.

Men are intrinsically violent beings

This is the third factor which indicates that women are better than men. As mentioned before, throughout history, not once have we had a female dictator who caused the deaths of millions of innocent people for absolutely no reason at all. In case you feel that we’re exaggerating, consider the following facts before jumping to a conclusion. All wars are started by men. The deadliest of weapons are designed by men. Most homicides are carried out by men. Almost all mass killings are facilitated by men. All terrorist organizations constitute mostly of men. All invasions are carried out by men. All gangrapes are carried out by men. The list goes on and on.

Men have an inclination towards absolute power. So much so that at times they become willing to hurt others in order to fulfill their goals. Many of them do not shy away from participating in dirty politics, and very conveniently make cold decisions that disrupt the lives of thousands of people in one single go. It’s almost as if they lack the conscience to differentiate between right and wrong. They possess a strong need to control those whom they consider to be beneath them. And leave no stone unturned when it comes to enforcing their twisted set of self-made dos and don’ts on the weak. What’s worse is that they expect women to behave in a certain manner. When their expectations aren’t met, they lash out giving unjust punishments in the name of law. This is especially seen in countries with conservative cultures and traditions.

Conversely, women are peace loving creatures who do not value power as much as they value prosperity. There have been several studies which show that men commit the most heinous of crimes in the world, especially in the name of modern growth. They seek profitable relationships and prefer not to invest in anything they don’t find to be useful. Women, on the other hand, believe in nurturing meaningful relationships even when they don’t receive anything in return. They are driven by attributes like mutual respect, harmony, collective progress and growth, etc. If they can find a way to succeed without having to hurt someone in the process, they would choose that path even if they had to expend additional time and effort for it.

For so many years, men have played the role of single breadwinners, and continue to do so even now in most parts of the world. While women also play an important role in common households, their contributions remain largely undervalued since they do not seem to have a direct impact on the financial situation of the family. This allows men to mistreat those who depend on them for basic resources, and so they do. Those who cannot act violent with the outside world, direct their aggressive instincts towards their own families leading to crimes like marital rape and domestic violence. The fact that men possess greater physical strength as compared to women only makes them liable to misuse it for selfish gains.

Women work harder for equal pay & recognition as men

This is the fourth factor which indicates that women are better than men. Throughout the globe, it is a common observation that women are paid far less than men even when they put in more work-hours and achieve better results. The percentage of women joining the daily modern workforce has been increasing rapidly in many countries. Women have been successfully securing important job roles and positions in multi-billion dollar industries. Yet, there continues to be a significant wage gap between these women and their male counterparts working at similar positions.

Women have already made many noteworthy contributions to the fields of science, medicine, spirituality, art, etc. In many households, women have taken up the responsibility of single breadwinners. Several women have also established their own firms and companies and have led them to unprecedented success and triumph.

Due to the existent stereotypical and discriminatory behaviour that women are constantly subjected to, they actually end up working much harder than most men so as to prove their mettle. Even then, the remuneration and the recognition they receive for the results they produce is far from fair.

Many a time, it so happens that women fail to secure a good paying full-time job because of the prevalent gender-bias. This forces them to undertake multiple part-time jobs so as to meet the financial needs of their family. The amount of time and effort that they are required to dedicate in such scenarios goes beyond imagination. Subsequent to working for extended hours, women are also responsible for looking after the daily requirements of their children and spouses, doing household chores, etc. This adds tremendously to their hardship, and physical and mental stress. Even still, they do what needs to be done no matter the cost.

In many creative fields, where talent is supposed to be the only deciding factor when it comes to reward and recognition for one’s work, women are yet again subjected to petty differences and prejudices. They are paid less than their male companions even when both of them happen to be working on the same project. Take for example the film industry wherein the male protagonist makes a lot more than what the female protagonist receives for her role in the film. This difference in pay scale makes no sense whatsoever when you look at the big picture objectively. Sadly, it exists, and quite prominently at that. Hopefully, it will be taken care of in the years to come, given the excellent results that women have been producing in their respective fields of study and work.

Women are natural managers & better leaders

This is the fifth factor which indicates that women are better than men. It is a fact that women are not only expected to have a balanced work-life integration, but are also required to generate noteworthy outcomes in all spheres of life if they wish to stay in the game. This makes efficient task, time and people management skills a crucial need of the hour for them. So they learn these at an early age from practical experience, and quite fabulously too. Apart from this, there are many other elements which give women an obvious edge over men in the professional world. Let us take a detailed look at some of them below.

First and foremost is the criteria based on which men and women end up making important career related decisions in their lives. Men happen to go for a bit more ‘return on investment’ centric approach. They view their career as a medium for making maximum possible financial gains and that tends to become their main point of focus. Women, on the other hand, consider their career to be an integral part of their overall life. To them, factors like job satisfaction, quality of relationship with their colleagues, office environment, work-life balance, etc. become just as important as the money they earn in return of their service. Therefore, once women find the right job for themselves, they tend to perform better than their male associates because the job then becomes much more than a simple source of income for them. Women tend to attach attributes like purpose and impact to their places of work and this brings about a huge positive change in their professional attitude and persona.

Second, most women are empathetic towards those around them including their colleagues and subordinates. They don’t see their employees as simple money-making machines but make it a point to understand them as fellow human beings. So when employees decide to approach their female manager with a personal problem, they can very well expect to get a reasonable response from her. Again, this is not to say that male managers won’t act reasonably in such situations. We’re just talking percentages here. Women’s empathetic nature enables them to identify certain strengths and weaknesses of their associates. This allows them to strategically assign tasks to other members when they assume the role of a team leader. They are also able to naturally factor in human limitations and make better people related decisions in any given situation. Empathy is one of the most noteworthy factors which tell us why women are better than men.

Next, women are excellent communicators and proficient nurturers. When working with female leaders, employees can rest assured that they will be given ample opportunities to improve upon their own capabilities and skill sets. A major problem faced by many professionals in the corporate world is that their efforts go unnoticed in front of higher management. In most scenarios, female leaders ensure that the people who work for them receive equitable recognition for their contributions. This keeps the latter motivated and inspired to keep working hard while producing commendable results. Women also tend to maintain an open atmosphere for two way communication which does away with all unnecessary communication gaps, grudges, personal or professional issues, etc.

Women keep their pride and ego in check. They don’t allow such personal limitations to affect their professional decisions. They are also intrinsically good at multitasking and portray much more flexibility and versatility as compared to men. All these features make women excellent leaders in their respective fields of work.

Conclusion

Women display many unique characteristics which make them much better individuals as compared to men. The sacrifices they make, and the hardships they endure on a daily basis is truly remarkable. The world continues to act unjust with them, plotting schemes to keep them chained and restricted. But they stay determined to succeed in all spheres of life, no matter how overwhelming the challenge may be.
