I find it amusing that behind some of these "great men" you will find a woman. If anyone is going to get us to Mars it is Gwynne Shotwell, president of SpaceX. Similarly it was Sheryl Sandberg that helped transition Facebook from a popular service to a dominant business.
I won't disagree. I'd say that gendered narratives such as "it would be better if women ran things" or "human progress depends on masculine energy" are not helpful and frequently pernicious.
