“All men are created equal,” are the opening words of the Declaration of Independence from that annus mirabilis 1776. Male humans ruled the world. They provided our food and other material necessities of life, protected the people, including women, children, and the aged, from foreign enemies and domestic criminals and bullies. They invented new ways to produce things, inspired us with their poetry and philosophy. Our founding fathers (not “founding people”) are rightly venerated even to this day.
