I quoted the Rambam. He says the reason for that Halacha is because men have more Mitzvos. You gave a made-up reason for the Halacha. You were offended by both the Halacha and by Rambam’s explanation of it. Which is why you lashed out at the Halacha and the Rambam and kvetched about him twisting the Halacha and seeing women as Arabs. Nothing other than the Halacha and the Rambam were quoted. No implications about sub-men or anything unless you think the Halacha itself means that. Because there was no other commentary by anyone here or personal explanations other than just the stating of the plain Halacha and the Rambam. And that set you off. It is no different than when some people hear anything about tznius they start screaming Taliban. If a part of the Torah offended you, you should seek an explanation from a chachom rather than set off against what you don’t like or invent your own boich svara that is different than what the Halacha clearly states.
