http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/...elligent-womenThe orthodoxy in intelligence research for the second half of the 20th century had been that men and women had the same average intelligence, but men had greater variance in their distribution than women. Most geniuses were men, and most imbeciles were men, they said, while most women were in the normal range. This conclusion, however, was manufactured out of political expediency. Not wanting to discover, or a priori denying, any sex differences in intelligence, psychometricians simply deleted from the standardized IQ tests any item on which the performance of men and women differed.
More recently, however, especially since the turn of the millennium, there have been an increasing number of studies that cast doubt on this politically correct conclusion. Studies with large representative national samples from Spain, Denmark, and the United States, as well as meta-analyses of a large number of published studies throughout the world, all conclude that men on average are slightly but significantly more intelligent than women, by about 3-5 IQ points. So this has now become the new (albeit tentative) consensus in intelligence research.

This is not a question of getting any better or worse. Its a fundamental difference in the psychology and mental mindset of people.
Its the females who are more interested in gossip and dreaming of shopping during their work hours or maybe thinking of their next job.
Men rarely do this. They are more focused and determined.
It is because women naturally gravitate towards multi-tasking, since they are better at it.

There's a difference between smart and intelligent, you guys do realise, right?
One means you're a genuis in a certain area of education. The other means that you have knowledge, you know what you're talking about, you can use words correctly.
I'm an intelligent person. Do I have a PhD? No. Was I in the highest class in school? No. Does that make me stupid? No. I just have dyslexia. Numerical and normal. The form of normal dyslexia I have is the inability to understand a question presented to me. For example, in maths, if I have to do problem solving, I won't be able to do it because it doesn't show me what kind of question it is, what kind of sum it is. Same goes for problem solving in English. I don't get it. But that doesn't make me a dimwit. I'm still a really intelligent person.

So you are the type of girl with initiative who keeps the pakis, neggros and feral liberal whites away from the yurt and the babies while the man is out?
All I have to say is...
