Why do women struggle in quicksand?
Women do not inherently struggle in quicksand more than men. The struggles in quicksand are mainly due to its physical properties - the more a person moves or struggles, the deeper they sink. Factors such as body weight, clothing, and panic reactions can affect a person's ability to stay afloat.
There was nobody to "discover" quicksand, and it has been lost in history as to who first wrote about the mysteries of the mud bog. It is found all over the world.

How can you survive quicksand?
First, don't panic! Panicking in quicksand is pretty much one of the few ways to turn this slightly dangerous situation into deadly. Second, if you are wearing something heavy attached to yourself like a backpack, unstrap it immediately if you feel it pushing you down.
Outside of having something attached to yourself that is heavy relative to its volume vs. the mass of the quicksand per unit volume, it turns out that it is impossible to sink in quicksand. If you were simply to stand completely still, the lowest you are likely to sink is to around your waist.
Thrashing around however, has been shown to cause the sediment and water to separate somewhat. This will cause you to sink deeper and deeper the more you thrash, to the point where you're almost completely submersed; then your thrashing, due to some suctioning effects, can pull you under.

Why was the treaty of versailles called a peace built on quicksand?
because they went fishing and they brought lots of money on the boat which sank and all the money went into the ocean
Yes you would because the sand would suck you in until you can no longer reach the surface. Therefore you wouldn't be able to breath
No.
Humans are neutrally buoyant in normal water, so we tend to float. Quicksand, being half sand, is far more dense, so we end up bobbing up to the surface due to our far lighter density.
You can easily 'swim' through it to the shore and pull yourself out.

Actually, quicksand itself cannot kill you. It's properties are such that although you can sink in it, you cannot be fully submerged. Resultant external factors are what will kill you, such as dehydration, solar radiation, etc...
