A recent study proves it is "very likely" that the reason women have difficulty rising to the top in their careers is because they are less intelligent than men, according to controversial University of Western Ontario psychologist J. Philippe Rushton.Men, in general may be smarter, but Philippe sure ain't!!!

Would be fun to know it this Prof. is married? If he is, I would love to be a fly in that bedroom.

ZING!
I have known some men with very thick brains, some with thin brains, and some no brains at all.

I know.
He keeps discussing the differences between people, and people don't want to hear about it.
In our time, these discussions can be like opening a styrofoam container of worms.

"Very likely"? Sounds like the kind of thing you would want to have facts on before making that statement.

He didn't say he was in charge, LOL.
Just that most men are smarter than most women.
3.63 IQ points.
For what it's worth.

Intelligence comes in different colors. Put a man and then a women in a strange room then see who remembers more when questioned. Women multitask better, (try to beat them at Scrabble!), but as most jobs are single goal oriented it makes men look better.

One man was not smart enough to keep his mouth shut.
Besides women can see the future (they know if you're going to get any sex in the near future anyhow). Bet they can see a future with the prof and his best girl 'Rosie'.

and discovered males scored the equivalent of 3.63 IQ points greater than their female counterparts. Even if true, that's not much of a difference. I believe the greater standard deviation of men compared to women plays a greater role; both genius and idiocy are more common among males. This makes sense from an evolutionary perspective; a "successful" male can spread his genes to a much greater extent than a successful female, so the correct genetic strategy for women is to play it safe, while for men it pays to take more chances.
To: fanfan
I dunno. My wife came out a whole point or three above me on the IQ scale.
Tells you what that's worth. She married me anyway. *\;-)

Actually, those statistics, if true, only speak to relative averages.
I'd be much more interested in relative standard deviations.
