Depends on how you rate "smartness" It has always been a male dominated society...males go to school, females try to look pretty. So males should have evolved to be better academics, while females should have evolved to be more attractive. btw, the male brain is typically bigger than the female brain, so obviously males have more potential to be smarter =P As for attractiveness...smartness and looks are not as important as symmetricalness =P
Hm... I would only agree to that if males bred with males and females with females but since both boys/girls contribute to the newborn, I don't believe what you say is complete. It's more complicated than that.
cloudstrife781, I'll give you that even though I don't believe it. And I studied biology intensively too in addition to analyzing papers to see which studies are legitimate. Which biology book did you get this information?
Something tells me it's Maxim. -rolleyes It seems to be pretty consistent with the chauvinistic theme.
Yes, so if males have a higher potential in smartness because of genetic crap ... but the thing is, do they USE all that potential??? It doesn't seem like it ... it seems like men only use a tiny fraction of the entire potential
be it in 2006 or 2030 ... there will still be "simple looking" but not simple, and "nerdy looking" and empty looking guy and gals ard ... ditto for guys ...
That was exactly what I was trying to point out to him in my earlier posts. Apparently, he doesn't seem to understand the concept. Either that or he is just embarrassed and refuses to acknowledge it. Maybe that's why he's so intimidated by intelligent women.
Basically in England the girls always outperform the guys in exams and grades, but I think that is for non-asians. Im smarter than my girl asian friends, but thats just a small case, dunno what the average is for asians Chinese people are achieve the highest grades in England
Chinese ppl are clever *woot woot* Yeh like other asians...such as indians etc...the boys are so much worse...coz I think they just too busy tryna be ying and embaressed to actually say they are studying! *sigh*
^ lol I had some Indian boys in my high school who were super geeks, who would compete to be the best in the school... academically that is
Actually, the boys are mostly muslims or black...>.<" I mean there are the complete opposite that study 24.7! LoL!! But mainly the girls do better than t boys at my school
If asians do so well in school..why is it that we don't see more asians in higher and more money making places? Where's the asian Bill gates?
School has nothing to do with money =P A plumber will probably make more than your average university graduate. As for management positions, it's not what you know, it's who you know! I'd say people skills are actually more important than work performance. As an aside, Bill Gates dropped out of university. So did Steve Jobs (Apple) Michael Dell (Dell) and a whole bunch of other founders/CEOs.
