Sure, it is controversial for people, but anyone who looks around can see the truth.
Men cluster intellectually around the top and bottom of the IQ scale at greater numbers than women do, and women have a more even distribution across the spectrum.
All one has to do is look at the elevated accomplishments of men historically and persistently today, even in a society that is doing all it can to “even the playing field” not by elevating women but by dragging down men.
And then one can look on YouTube (if real life won’t suffice) and see ample evidence of men clustering around the bottom of the IQ and accomplishment scale. Most men have a degree of this in us inherently, we all do things over the course of our lives that when we look at them in retrospect, are embarrassing.
That’s how it is. Anyone with an eye for watching can see it, and the fact that someone is distressed that men might have a slightly higher concentration at the top (but the bottom is okay, they all think we should be down there anyway) is what drives this.
Distressingly, there are elements of society that think it is somehow a good thing to encourage women to be as base, evil, and stupid as we men occasionally are. If you don’t believe me, what we see in the entertainment business and on YouTube (again, if reality isn’t obvious enough) as a proxy verifies that.

And that IQ spread actually helps the survival of the species. Women provide the normative middle contributing to a stable society. Men at the upper edges of the IO range are the pathfinders to advancement and invention. Those at the lower range historically were likely the heavy lifters doing the most physically demanding tasks.
you’re gonna start that I.Q. argument again.
in engineering school few women were enrolled. You cannot be a successful electrical engineer without a higher I.Q. than the average.
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.
