The truth: nearly all past bigotry was justified, or at least had a logical component, even if it was unconscious. Men rejected female power because they knew what would happen if females got power. Men were racist because they knew what would happen in mixed race societies. Men were homophobic because they knew what would happen if degeneracy was allowed through the door. While historically most reactions to these taboos was purely based on instinct and not reason, we're seeing clearly in the modern world why men reacted instinctively towards these things. Sadly somewhere along the way our biological reactions were subverted, and we were told that they were wrong, and that we must embrace the deviants.

I wish I could find this via google right now, but there's ancient writings from greece or rome, possibly even a play, speculating and ridiculing what would happen if women were allowed to run civilization.
It's exactly what you'd expect - single mothers on welfare, nanny-state shit, foreign men welcomed in with open arms.
Even the idea that this 'instinct' and 'not reason' is false. Any man who has figured out roughly what motivates women can figure out what a woman-run government will look like, and any man who has figured out what keeps a society functioning on an inter-generational time scale can figure out that a woman-run government is a road to slow death.

The play is "The Assembly women" by Aristophanes.
