I thought that we had already beaten biology in many aspects. In fact, biology has changed because of how we act. As we began to use tools, evolution-wise, we began to develop more traits relating to using tools. If you think that we should only do or act as biology dictates us, and that trying to change biology doesn't lead us anywhere, you should probably stay away from medical research and sociological studies. Those are two areas where although biology is important, changes in them are also important too. |

What about this angle: given that men are apparently quite superior to women when it comes to abstract thinking, then why don't we do our best to improve male performance even more? By the time women will have caught up (if ever), we've probably lost a few centuries of progress. This concept is called "opportunity costs." I am not sure it's taught in Gender Studies.
Note that I'm playing devil's advocate to make you realize how incredibly shady your argument is.
