Yes, that's right: men actually are smarter than women. It's a little risky for me to write this now with my only reader (at least until this post) being female, but I need something risque to jump-start my blog.
Anyways, I'll provide an explanation for this seemingly outlandish, unconscionable claim soon.

ok im really annoyed.
ReplyDeletei JUST read an article about how ratio of body-to-brain wise, females are actually SMARTER because they have a higher ratio. but now i cant find that article!
anyways, the point is, GIRLS ARE COOLER THAN BOYS.
hehehe i feel like we're back in elementary school. oh, and starting in 2002, more women were in med school than men. so HAH!
Haha yes you are right about girls being smarter body-to-brain wise (the way I read it was that if height is controlled for—taken out of the equation—girls are slightly smarter). Anyways just if men are slightly smarter as a group doesn't mean they are necessarily more motivated or bound to be successful, obviously. Not sure if I'll get around to a more detailed post about this today, but hopefully sometime this week.

ReplyDeleteArticle Title: "Men Smarter than Women"
"When Rushton and colleagues weighted each SAT question by an established general intelligence factor called the g-factor, they discovered that males surpassed females by an average of 3.6 IQ points."
