Topic says it all.
Note: I'm not trying to be sexist, so please don't suspend me for 14 days if people find this offensive (as absurd as that may sound).
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Go gather up any intelligence-related stats for all men and women around the world, find me the exact average stat for each gender and I may be able to compare them.
Till then, I'd say it depends on the person.

Well it looks like the OP already made up his mind despite all of the responses so far saying it is subjective/depends on the person. So really... what's the point of this thread? SajedeneNo one asks a question like this if he hasn't already made up his mind.

So really... what's the point of this thread? bungie93No one asks a question like this if he hasn't already made up his mind. No one makes a thread like this without wanting not even a debate but a one sided argument to say "Here is my question, here is my answer, and this is why you all are wrong."
I heard from somewhere that A scientist determined that women have brains the same size as a squirrel does. I can't remember where I heard that from but is there any truth to that? Thanks.

No. I think you may have been watching too many Saturday morning cartoons. Just a thought though....Just a thought...I heard from somewhere that A scientist determined that women have brains the same size as a squirrel does.

Women are less likely to engage in violence, consume alcohol, or bust their arse in an extreme manual-labour job with risk of serious physical injury, so if they are not more endowed with intelligence, they are at least more endowed with common sense!burpysmurphSo whites have more common sense than blacks? The characteristics you described are correlated with testosterone. Women have less testosterone than men, whites have less testosterone than blacks, and Asians have less testosterone than whites. In men, lower testosterone correlates with higher intelligence.
Is that a gay joke?40ozbastardNo, that guy wrote a book about how men are better than women http://www.menarebetterthanwomen.com/

Oh ok thanks for clearing that up.

So are whites smarter than blacks then?
i would say if you got down to the real nitty gritty evidence, of millions of people being tested etc.
men would probably come out on top, thats not to say there isn't amazingly inteligent women.
[QUOTE="40ozbastard"]its men vs women. :|I thought Asians were the smartest, am I wrong?

In that case I think we would win in a fight.

Bwahahaha. That was a funny video. The guys an idiot but he provides a good laugh and he is good with words. The lady at the end couldn't make a comeback after he ripped her apart.
[QUOTE="burpysmurph"]Sex does not factor into intelligence.LockedgeThis. One could argue gender roles factor into it, but I severely doubt biology plays such a role in someone's intelligence. Myriad studies have shown that men and women's brains are profoundly different. Heck, men and women in general are profoundly different. To suggest that no difference in intelligence exists between men and women is patently absurd.
It depends really. Women are more intuitive then men. Men are more logical then women. That doesn't polarize things though, meaning that dealing with emotions isn't just a female thing and solving problems a male thing. But, in general, that's how things work.
Now as far as intelligences goes, that really can throw things out of wack. Being female, I can tell you a number of guys that should have been able to follow the logic of 'cheating on your girl will result in getting dumped,' yet continue to do so anything. And, there are also plenty of girls I know that will mess with a guys head simply because they know he doesn't understand a female mind. So, it really depends on too many factors. I doubt we will ever have a clear answer to that question.
I doubt there's a clear cut answer to that question really. I find men being more specialized in different fields while women being all-rounders but there are always exceptions. Likewise there are many different intelligences and many different definitions of intelligence. Some people say intelligence is common sense. Others say its worldly knowledge. Still others say it's the ability to think quickly.
I don't know about anyone else but I can't truthfully state that I think men are smarter than women or vice-versa.
