You Men Think You're So Smart, Don't You?
Some of you guys are just having a field day with this "research", eh.
I COULD HAVE TOLD YOU THIS!!!!
Men are smarter than women
To men and women alike, you're truly smart if you take this study with a grain of salt.
On the one hand, the study fails to recognise that women have been subordinated for a very long time, which could lead to less activity in those areas of the brain studied.
Also, it has been shown that IQ increases with education (going to college apparently increases IQ by 4 points, or thereabouts - that is, if you didn't party those college years away, lol). Where is the research on levels of education between the sexes, and which courses were taken, and all those other external influences that alter one's thinking abilities?
Plus, how many "scientific" discoveries have been made and then proven unreliable and inconclusive?
It's always going to be a man's dream that he's smarter than women. But, the reality is that there is no perfect, sterile environment in which we can find out the truth. As long as cultural, external elements invade our thinking and our perception of the world, there will always be bias to the study.
Besides after this story, you'll know some men are as dumb as dirt:
I was coming up to a stop sign and some stupid f*ck of a driver overshot his turn and came into my lane. The f*cking idiot of a male (I'm sure it could have equally been a female) honks his horn, so my automatic reaction was to glare and finger the b*st*rd.
How stupid of a f*cking a$$hole do you have to be to not realise YOU are in the wrong?
My guess is that that guy was far more inferior to me intellectually.
Not to mention how many times I've had to teach MR.BIG a thing or two on how to use the computer, and HE's the self-proclaimed "computer genius".
Uh, ya right, sure men are smarter.
And, even if it were true (which I don't buy for a second), women are better looking; we don't stink; we're not overly furry; and we actually apply our brains.
*Tee hee*
(No offense to those I consider real men out there who do apply their brains and know there is a balance between the sexes and don't need to feel superior or justified through some "study".)

Wasn't there some study announced last year with the opposite result? Either way I don't believe this for a minute. Most likely this new study is (1) bogus, and (2) promoted by *women* in an effort to keep men exactly where they (the women) want them: feeling (falsely) superior.
I for one see through the facade.
At least I think I do; I could be wrong. Again. Still.
Just doing what I do best, is all.

This isn't the study done by a man is it? Cause I refuse to buy into anything written by the men that says they are smarted.

vilmar - LOL, takes a smart man to make wit like that, and this smart woman gets it.
Radioactive Jam - That's all we can hope for in life: the best.
Lilo - ya, it is that study

Does IQ increase with education or education increase with intelligence?
Unless education acts on IQ like exercise acts on muscle.

Men rule world. Men screw up the world they rule. Women inherit the earth. Oh boy, "used planet". :) I have been amused in the last week by the woman in Portland who KILLED the hit man her husband hired to kill HER.

I can't understand why people don't just accept the fact that men and women are different, and quit trying to make a competition of it. Just because people compete, doesn't always mean someone wins...

I actually took it with a whole shaker. I still couldn't resist blogging about it, though. ;-)
