That's very true. However, the chances of success are just tipped in a guy's favor.
My uterus pinned me into about 20 yrs of an abusive marriage, for example. Interestingly, the one with no uterus is the one who left first. It was easier for him.
i am a huge fan and want to be clear that this is not a criticism: your persona comes across as very sharp and intimidating, while most men i've known who've had similar appeals came across as effortlessly slick, instead. indeed our inherent cowardice accounts for the only discernible difference.
not trying to kiss your butt. in my younger days i detected this exact selfish fear within myself, making it very hard to work with smarter women during my own Z-list games journo career. wish i had fixed my heart sooner. hope admitting my failures helps you overcome these small-minded worldview.
I had to realize that while looking for a job in 2007 while everyone I knew called me an idiot for not being able to find one (they didn’t realize the economy was crashing)
I mean I kind of feel this on the other side as the three-sigma exception who has kept a single "write about games" job for 13 years, somehow, while other writers I consider better have struggled
I have long realized that there's plenty of blame to go around when important goals are not met. That idea is such a big part of me that I really don't feel like a failure beside my unrealized goals.

We're just talking about loaded dice; that's all.
Me: People are affected by forces beyond themselves and should not feel guilt about what they can’t change.
My brain: Not you tho.
Me: Not me tho.
…Not saying I don’t want the bag so that I can do what I love full-time, of course, but still…
