"War led to the institution of slavery, especially for the women of the defeated side (defeated males were usually slaughtered) and stamped the entire female gender with the stigma attached to concubines and domestic servants. Men did better, or at least a few of them, with the most outstanding commanders rising to the status of kings and eventually emperors."Yes, other than being parenthetically slaughtered, men did great. I enjoyed imagining Bill Burr tackling this bit.
