Difference in bell curves between men and women for IQ

It make sense. All women are inherently valuable from an evolutionary standpoint, so it makes sense for nature to keep the Russian roulette to a minimum and stick with 'sure-value' gene structures. Men aren't valuable, one man can impregnate many women, it doesn't matter if some men are failures. So nature puts the evolutionary pressure on men mostly, trying wilder gene variations that sometimes create geniuses - and dunderheads. The geniuses reproduce, the dunders don't (hopefully), and humanity advances. Although since the welfare state, the dunders are definitely reproducing.

It's the same for everything, weight, height, proportional variance, humour, hand eye coordination etc etc etc etc etc .

It's to do with the chromosomes and genetic variability. It's incredibly well documented and understood I'm the evolutionary psychology field.

The hedge fund shit is erroneous tho because women have a lot of traits that help in such scenarios. I think that women just have kids instead makes a huge difference. Also they are not driven to impress the opposite sex like men are because of sexual selection. Women that do 60+hrs a week jobs are vanishingly rare and it's nothing to do with IQ.

His SATs were 1200, his IQ could be around 120/140, so much for calling Bush dumb right?

" Dumb " in the context of people at that level doesnt really mean what it does for an average person. 120 is def solid for an average Joe , but pretty unspectacular at the upper levels of business/ politics ECT.

Calling any of the people in similar positions " idiots " , is pretty retarded too. An " idiot " is pumping gas at 40 years old , not climbing to the top of his profession and worth a millions.

Even someone like Palin is not objectively an " idiot " . She just ooks like a non gifted person should look in contrast to gifted ones.
 
I scored 2 standard deviations above the mean on the test I took in school. That's highly gifted level. Around 130. 98th percentile. To be fair I was baked as hell when I wrote that test though.

I also majored in a high iq major in school: Finance.

Yeah, I'm pretty smart.

LOL. My brother majored (and graduated) in Finance and I wouldn't call him a smart one when it came to traditional education. He was actually horrible at math too (compared to me) so yeah.. ummm your major is low tier in the difficulty range of majors. hahahaha.
 
As the saying goes: Those who are obsessed with IQ often have a low IQ.

Sounds scientific.
It's funny... when in college writing a paper in which I wanted to insert some random BS, I would just write "A wise man once said...." and write whatever I want. It's like "permission to speak freely" in the TV military. You can say whatever you want and can't nobody refute it or give you shit about it. As the saying goes...

... dumb guys are 10x worse than dumb girls

Indeed. Sooo destructive to the world. But tbh women are destructive too... they just destroy men.
 
It's been known for years that men have a wider range of IQ. Men are the dumbest and smartest, women are in between.
 
These are it.

Risk aversion, willingness to work long hours, and probably add things like ambition, power, and of course, the good ol' boys network. You can't schmooze and shoot the shit with the company's senior partners nearly as well when you're a broad.

If IQ is a factor, it's way at the bottom of this. Stuff like Mensa members, CERN scientists or Cal Tech faculty, yeah ok, it's probably significant.
The boys club gets overplayed.

Companies want to hire women and with gender quotas and affirmative action and all this shit a woman with the same qualifications will likely have an edge against a man with the same qualifications.

As I said IQ isn't the only factor but the fact that there are nearly double the amounts of men in the 130+ plus range is definitely a factor. The fact that feminists still use lack of female CEO's as a talking point is intellectually dishonest.
 
Indeed, I would guess that really the greatest test of those kinds of management position is probably social intelligence which women typically score more highly in, if theres an issue beyond plain sexism its perhaps a lack of ruthlessness?
I'd say problem solving is as important, and men do better in that.

Problem solving seems a pretty broad area though, how do you define that? as has been said I doubt most CEO's have massively high IQ's probably above average but their not all MENSA members.

I'd recommend reading The female Brain and The Male Brain by Louann Brizendine M.D.

Essentially the female brain is better wired for communication, while male brains are better wired for problem solving. I'd define problem solving as being able to solve problems, analyze data, reason in a rational way, like an Engineer or a scientist. or a a ceo who needs to improve productivity by a certain amount before the next set of Financial Statements come out, so share price doesn't go down.

Mensa is 130 and up, which is only 6 points higher than an average finance grad. I'd say that most CEO's are in the 130-140 or so range.
 
So one broad gets to go around bragging about how she’s the smartest women in the world.

I wanna know who she is?
 
He was born with a silver spoon up his butt. But he didn't inherit THAT much.

He inherited a little bit and turned it into a lot.

A lot of entitled rich kids squander or just maintain their inherited wealth (adjusted for inflation).

Trump inherited a small fortune and turned it into a huge fortune.
There is speculation about just how much he actually has. At one point he was over $70 million in debt. This is the same guy that pretended to be someone else calling Fortune magazine to inflate his worth to get him on their richest list. No domestic banks would loan him money, hence his involvement with Deutsche Bank. Fact is the guy inherited at least a few million and that was after the "startup" million his father gave him. So it's a little hard to take seriously "he didn't inherit THAT much" when you are talking about how a majority of people don't even come close to inheriting that much money.
As far as real estate mogul, that isn't entirely true. He has been very successful at marketing his name for condo buildings with other investors but as far as his own real estate ventures he isn't really taken seriously by the big players in NY. In the situations where he has actually had to manage something he has done horrible; casinos, steaks, vodka, airline, university, water, clothing line. The actual Trump organization is quite small but they have done a great job of creating the facade that they are a global entity.
As far as reality tv star, I don't know if you can really equate that the high IQ. If that's the case than the Kardashians are friggin geniuses along with Paris Hilton and Honey BooBoo. The guy has confidence, he's very good at marketing/sales and he has made it his life long mission to put himself in the public eye and promote and inflate his persona.
As far as being elected president, again that has just as much to do with marketing and sales than actually having a decent platform to run on. You also have to take into consideration he was running against one of the most disliked people in the country and he still lost the popular vote by quite a bit, he just happened to get the vote in the places that counted the most to give him the W.

So, really none of these things are indicators of intelligence, if anything they are more an indicator of someone that got lucky. I'm not saying one way or the other if I think he's smart, but he definitely is a great salesman.
 
You know, you don't have to make a graph. You have the standard deviation.

"conversely there are probably more stupid men than there are women as well."

Needs a graph imo.
 
Real Estate Mogul
Reality tv star
President of the US

If anything it's an underestimate. The guy is very intelligent, if not a genius.

Also don't confuse sounding dumb with being dumb, there are a lot of genius' who aren't great communicators. Though he's not one of them, he must be ok at it as he became successful in the fields I mentioned by communicating.

His favourite phrase is "rigged witch hunt" so you do need to question his intelligence but thinking further maybe he just understands his base and does well by not overestimating them.
 
As the saying goes: Those who are obsessed with IQ often have a low IQ.

Dunno about that, but those that claim superiority by belonging to a group that has members who do well are certainly of low IQ.

Less than twice as many 130+ IQs, yet 95% of CEOs is perfectly honest.

And 50 years after affirmative action got implemented where we're still at a 95-5 male/female split clearly indicates that it's men that still have the edge.

Women aren't anywhere near as willing to work 100 hour workweeks and they take time off from their career to raise families.

Factor those with the IQ differential and the ratio of Female ceo's to male ones does not seem like discrimination.

A woman with an IQ of 130-140, who went to a top school who actually wants to work 100+ hours a week and who wouldn't take time off to have kids would have the same shot at becoming a ceo as a man with the same characteristics imo.

The reality is though that a man is simply much more likely to fit all of those requirements individually, aggregate them and it becomes obvious why there are so few female ceo's.
