    Why do women have lower IQs than men?: The case for plebeian intellect in females

    You still have a lot of learning to do. You still have a lot of learning to do if you consider this response to not have serious logical and historical flaws (to name only two). "How does it affect women? In truth, these findings guarantee little impact because they've always been there and...

    Why do women have lower IQs than men?: The case for plebeian intellect in females

    Civility, reason, knowledge, and understanding are key. A word of advice, snafupants, this assumption is incorrect. "How does it affect women? In truth, these findings guarantee little impact because they've always been there and we've been dealing just fine through the generations with this...

    Why do women have lower IQs than men?: The case for plebeian intellect in females

    Fair. My point is that this thread is not going beyond arguments not based on one of those two assumptions (assertions). At risk of dichotomizing all the posters thus far, either they believe the test to be (mostly) objective and an appropriate tool to measure full on intelligence. OR, they...

    Why do women have lower IQs than men?: The case for plebeian intellect in females

    Wow! I don't doubt that a "fundamental insecurity" is what is going on here. Please correct me if I'm incorrect. You ask a question about why men have higher IQ scores than women & relate an IQ score as an objective indicator of intelligence...correct? A number of individuals (male...

    Are you creepy/weird?

    I was once told by a friend that I'm the most normal non-normal person she knows. Take that as you will. Something I get a lot is that I'm nicer than my first impression were to imply, but that may have more to do with power relationships (perceived or real), than with me. Then again, maybe I...

    singing about what is happening

    I catch myself doing this too. Not to the extent that people stare (mostly because it tends to happen at home & my roommate is of the same vein). If a pattern exists, I'd say it is most likely to happen when I'm in a good mood or when I'm doing kinesthetic memory tasks (mopping floors, dusting...

    Anyone Else Generally Bad at spelling

    Bad. Very, very bad speller. Phonics has never worked for me so it is hard for me to use dictionaries (like if I can't discern what the second or third letter should be, how the hell I can look it up?). I'll look up spellings in a thesaurus instead. It is actually really frustrating at times...
