Matt Ridley quote ✍️

Quote

There is a neat economic explanation for the sexual division of labour in hunter-gatherers. In terms of nutrition, women generally collect dependable, staple carbohydrates whereas men fetch precious protein. Combine the two — predictable calories from women and occasional protein from men — and you get the best of both worlds. At the cost of some extra work, women get to eat some good protein without having to chase it; men get to know where the next meal is coming from if they fail to kill a deer. That very fact makes it easier for them to spend more time chasing deer and so makes it more likely they will catch one. Everybody gains — gains from trade. It is as if the species now has two brains and two stores of knowledge instead of one — a brain that learns about hunting and a brain that learns about gathering.
