I believe Yash is not a native speaker of English. So I don’t think he intended to say anything derogatory. What we were discussing was that when it comes to learning the stuff that requires a lot of mental effort (like Dhamma), women end up being a minority by a significant margin. For example, if we look at the Engineering Statistics of Women, only 7.7% of women worked in science and engineering (S&E) occupations in 2021.
But I agree with dosakkhayo, we should not generalize people based on our personal experience. Though we should be mindful of the differences between male and female.
