Let's disregard 90% of men who usually talk about who'd they bang, sports, anime, superhero movies, which are convos that take barely any knowledge and interest for you to become an expert in.

Let's concentrate on 10% of men that should be "interesting".

I can only share my personal experience about this 10%, but men I talk to have this bias where they think their opinion is basically something completely unique, acting as erudites even in the fields they literally know nothing about. This fool's confidence is why it's hard for men to open up to new opinions, knowledge and world views, which is why they're stuck in their little mental cocoons.

Women,on the other hand, are much more open to a different set of world views and topics. They're rarely stuck in these autistic vortexes like some men are - vortexes other people would hardly find interesting or breakthrough.

Women I talk to are also 10%, some of them experts in their field. What fascinated me is that despite being experts they don't have god complex and constantly try to 1up person they're talking to. Men act as if they know it all, but rarely walk the walk or improve themselves.

Tldr: if i had to count moments where I was mindblown by the tone of the conversation, intelligent remark or reaction, even borderline shamed by the person's intelligence or knowledge, I'd say 70% of these moments were caused by other women.
