Are Women More Intelligent?

[Bobcat Fraser]

The other thread was hijacked. That's fine; it happens. In any event, a recent study claims that the ordinary woman's IQ is now higher than the ordinary man's IQ. Why do you think this is true/false?

Men are too emotional and no good with logic.

Sorry about hijacking the other thread. Anyway, I'd like to say that despite IQ, women study more efficiently and frequently, at least on average that seems to be the case. I wonder if there are studies on this.

Well, in general studies, is the opposite.
But if you say so.

Men are women are very different psychologically, and their IQ patterns are different too. Men have a more bell-shaped IQ curve, while women have a more flat one. This will in turn give men more idiots and geniuses, and women more average individuals.

Did you make a typo? Seriously, your comment doesn't apply to either gender, but it makes for a good subtle joke about gender stereotypes.

A study? That means nothing if it hasn't been duplicated.

It's cool. It comes with the forum territory. I indeed read that women have better study habits and better work habits. That's especially true for Generation Y.

Actually it's the opposite. At least it's what people say.
