I'm not saying "much easier", but I do think you've stumbled upon where I think our disagreement truly is. I'm speaking in pluralities. Women and men, groups of people. Clearly there are more successful women than men. As any creator ranking can demonstrate. However, I think you are coming from an individualistic standpoint. Of which I make no assumption. For an individual woman or man, I have no idea if it's harder or easier and frankly I don't care because I assume they're both incredibly hard. A man has a limited audience and a woman has more competition. I have no clue what set of differences are harder than the other and I don't pretend to know.
