Looking at SAT scores, boys score higher than girls in math, and this becomes very pronounced at the 700-800 range, where twice as many boys than girls score a perfect 800 .

A former professor at the University of Georgia claims that a math journal deleted a statistic study he did on the achievement gap between men and women at similar levels of intelligence after a backlash from board members who found the study too controversial for their politically correct values.
The results of Professor Theodore Hill’s research is not exactly a positive one for men. According to his research, there are more men at the top and the bottom of the intelligence distribution. This phenomenon was first studied by Charles Darwin, who called it the Great Male Variability Hypothesis. While there are more men than women that win the Nobel Peace Prize, there are also more men living on the streets, in prison, and addicted to drugs. Professor Hill’s research aimed to create a theoretical model that explained this trend.
After the research was accepted by the Mathematical Intelligencer, Professor Hill’s co-author, Sergei Tabachnikov, a math professor at Penn State, began to face a backlash from his colleagues. Shortly thereafter, the Mathematical Intelligencer rescinded their acceptance of the research.

I so want to use that statement as a tagline...!
She found them hilarious.
She's the only female I've ever known who did.
No study means the gap doesn’t exist.
So there.

I'd be flattered for you to do so. I once had a co-worker who was so taken by one of my sayings that he had it tattooed on his left thigh. I tried very hard to talk him out of it, but he insisted!
The women who are now the majority enrolled in pharmacy, veterinary , and medical schools could be engineers. Their A + grades in chemistry, physics, and calculus are proof enough of that. They **choose** not to be.
Women have tighter keratosis?
I just had to email a friend with that statement...brilliant...just brilliant!
Thank you for your permission...it is things like that which make me give money to Jim Robinson!
Good point.
Me too. Same timeframe.
What a coinky-dink...
In the 70s (and before), men made up 57% of the student body on American campuses. Liberals whined. We made changes.
In the 80s, admissions were about equal. We did not change anything back.
In the 90s, and since, admissions were reversed, 57-43 female. Not a whisper about this being "unfair" or needing change.
Further, men are STILL blamed when some majors (especially STEM) have few women... even though women are the majority, AND are free to choose any major they want, AND the STEM majors have no shortage of outreach to women. They BEG for female applicants, and give them many more scholarships, etc.
The Progressives have never been about actual Equality, and never will be.
Take 2, fighting back against Otto Kor Wrecked:
Women have tighter kurtosis?
“I don’t suppose somebody has a copy they could post or mail around?”
Apparently we’re approaching the point where scientific research is going to have to be promulgated by samizdat.
XX+XY=1
XX=46
XY=46
XX/2=X
XY/2= X or Y
X+Y=XX or XY
Applicagions? Is than an algorithm that goes viral??? You may have stumbled upon a great new word!
From an evolutionary perspective, there's an advantage to males engaging in risk-taking behavior. A successful risk taker can become a high-status male, who can impregnate many females.
It doesn't pay for females to take risks to improve their status.
They have always been about Power, and who they need to charm and bribe in order to get it.
It's only "controversial" if one is wholly into political correctness. There has been study after study after study yielding the same results.
Oh yeah. We are lucky that camera phones hadn't been invented yet. So many compromising photos were missed, to our ever-loving good fortune.
