what was the context of this quote, "she is not stupid but she is a woman"

Aminata not only had to deal with racial prejudice, she also had to deal with sexism. Men, even black men, simply did not take her seriously.
Alassane says βShe is not stupid, but she is a woman.β Altough Aminata is intelligent, he limits her worth as a woman.
