But does this strike anyone else as a particularly bad combination when you look at both these reports? Even if it was a society of aliens, from across the universe I'd say it doesn't bode well for them. Women are 3.6-4 points lower on IQ scores, recent tests show brain size when adjusted for body weight is actually smaller not larger, and men tend to yield to their judgement. 4 points isn't a huge difference, but I wonder what the future will hold for our species just the same. I didn't bother to read those news articles, size of the brain doesn't determine thinking power....imagine computers as an example.....just because a computer is smaller doesn't mean it will have less processing power......it is an indicator though that if all things are equal, the bigger brains will do more..... With regard to intelligence, men fall on the extremes. If on a bell curve, there are more women in the center, and alot of men fall there too, but men also fall on the extremes more often... perhaps we do fall 4 IQ points higher on average, its such a small margin its making mountains out of moehills..... There are definitive differences about the sexes, yet it hardly makes one better than the other..... 4 points does make a difference to the median income, which means women will have less power outside the homes. The story about women being more domiant than men shows that at work they have less power, and at home they have more. The 4 points may be a causitive factor perhaps? Oh, and since brains function on the same principles, much like MHz or parallel registers, all things being equal give me a big alien head type brain please.
