Women could change the world overnight if they’d ban together on denying sex. There were two warring tribes in Africa (last century, I forget) where the woman came together and said no poonanny until you boys are at peace. Instant peace.
It’s also the plot of the classic Greek play Lysistrata, wherein the eponymous protagonist incites a sex strike to end the Peloponnesian War.
I mean sure, if half the population agrees on anything it gets a lot easier to accomplish. Good luck convincing them though
