[QUOTE="DivergeUnify"][QUOTE="Pearl_of_Egypt"]um, there are plenty of female scientists you know. and did you know that in med school there are more women than men?Napster06

yeah take it from the electrical engineer :P

That is A fact. And even in Engineering (not all) there are more women than men. Me likey! :D

Ok that's almost NEVER the case - engineering is the faculty with the least amount of women (statistically speaking).

And it's not that women aren't smart, because they are. It's just that men take it to the next level in advancing math and science.

Women belong in the kitchen and should just bear children.

Men excel in spatial skills and women excel in linguistics, they are very cunning linguists ;)

Statistically, yes. But again it depends on the 'type' of engineering.

I don't see men in colleges tend to 'advance' in math and science. There are smart men, but number is small, putting women look smarter.

And the last part sounds a bit feminist, IMO?

The reason there are more women in college is due to all of the women femenist groups that are throwing money at any girl who decided she wants a bachelors/masters and wants to burn her bra. Men on the otherhand, still have to deal with all of the competition of getting in with no quota's favoring them and very few if any groups throwing money at them. They'd be lucky to be poor enough to get money from the government, but even that is never enough. Generally a large percentage of men in most colleges have a hard time with finances, creating a very stressful environment which may be affecting the grade averages of most men. This post, of course, is in regaurds to average men. Not rich people. Rich people dont matter, they get in no matter what..

I think you mean anti-feminist. And I was just being an @ss.

If you look at the medical journals and research papers that are published you can tell majority (key word) are done and lead by men. It is due in part to evolution where men had to develop strong spatial skills (ie throwing the spear) while women were caregivers. Why do you think most nurses are women, it's just part of their nature. Again not saying that there are not any intelligent women but all the advances in old and modern technology are done primarly by men.

What have women accomplished since then? I still don't see any female Einsteins out there. Where are the female Einsteins?

Men are smarter, stronger, faster, because back in the day, men needed to hunt and gather food for their tribes. Women are built for baby-making, so they live longer, are more flexible, etc. Those are the facts, and that's the way it is.

Ah yes, my bad.

And I would say most, not all. There are journal that are written by female. And nowadays, there isn't anymore one man shows. Most medical juournals are conducted by a group of people rather than either just a male or female.

Men are harder better faster stronger. And in general, smarter. That doesn't mean all women aren't smart. There are some women smarter than some men but in general, men are smarter. Women (in general for all the too sensitive girls out there) tend to be too emotional to use their head right.

you can't say men are smarter. that's only an assumption and not scientifically proven. nice try.

Actually, there's a great deal of scientific and historical precedence for his statement. It's a result of evolution. Men have always been the leaders and hunter-gatherers of the species resulting in a higher development of mental and physical skills. We are superior in those area's, while women are better geared for child care, are better nurterers in general, and do live longer on the average. Nice try though.

OH NO YOU DIDNT GO THERE

Well, it seems you did.

Short answer - men and women think differently. Men are more visually orrientated. Women are better at oral learning. Please, no sexual cracks.

As far as I'm concerned, who is more intelligence is not really that important, because the answer is clear that if one gender is actually more intelligent it is only by a small margin and both genders have proven that they are capable of doing any occupation, equally, except obviously on physical jobs where men have the biological advantage of bodysize.

I'd be more interested to know exactly what the emotional differences are. Well, the scientifc reasons behind the OBVIOUS emotional differences... Hehheh...

You know what I'm 'talkin bout, don't yah?

The answer is obvious. *history*, Biographies, stuff like that. He didnt get help on his theory of relativity. Most revolutionary theories come out of the mind of one man, and then later are examined by groups of scientists, like Steven Hawkings theories, in particular his theories on black holes and particles that appear and disappear.
