So we can say most human women have developed better habits than the insects, right? Biologically speaking, human women don't have any such ability or instinct of throwing a feast of their partner's dead body after mating.

But look at the human men. Most of them supporting and trying to thrive in such a system (patriarchy) where almost all the resources necessary for human lives are in the hand of a powerful few, and then hierarchically distributed among the men (based on their level in the pyramid), and most women are only granted access to those basic resources only if they are either born as the daughter of one of those powerful top dogs (which is not even 1% of the female population), or, if they enter into an agreement where they will provide free domestic labor and care and sex to the other men and stay loyal to them unconditionally. What a way of courtship!

(Now recently, we have been able to develop a system where some women can work and get paid for it under the protection of labor law etc., or, a system where married women, after divorce, get some compensation for their contribution to the ex-husband's wealth accumulation (alimony); but those systems are also pretty weak in most of the places in the world, and in most of the cases, the women who benefit from these system are the higher class women only.)

Not the initial for Man/Male. After all, this letter is not only reserved for that. It's the initial of my name, and I am a woman.
