Men are better at everything and women are just holes to fill with our mighty meat batons.

Just don't tell my girlfriend I said that or I'll be in the dog house.

Maybe, but it still ends up with men leading with 5-6 IQ on average.

I don't really understand what the average IQ of billions of men and women have to do with any particular woman or man.  You can find retards and geniuses in both categories.  Your intelligence (or lack of) has no bearing on mine.

Can you start your own topic if you want to derail this GoT's thread?

From what I've read, the curve for IQ for men bombs slightly at either end, meaning there are more genius level AND substandard IQ men than there are women. The curve for women is much flatter, with a greater proportion of women with average intelligence when compared to men.

Even though your choice of words is incorrect, that's what I heard too, and I think it is correct.

Way to not understand a simple report.



By the way, this opens up the question that IQ (or the specific test that was used) is maybe not representative of the ability of women to solve problems and understand situations, because they don't do it the same way as men. Men and women differ wildly in some areas, especially those things that are related to problem solving, so maybe IQ is not gender-neutral. I mean, it's totally possible that it gives more weight to tasks where men do better than women, and that another weight distribution would be a better representation of "intelligence".

IQ tests correlate extremely highly with g. So yes, it's representative.

Absolutely, averages are completely useless when looking at individuals. Xant's casual misoginy aside, which I suspect is mostly played for trolling potential than anything else, generalizations about more than 3 billion people are going to fail.

I wonder if Cersei Lannister doesn't like wine a bit too much.
