Girls Vs. Boys

[TheBlackChidori]

So which gender is really the more intelligent?

[megabbaut]

Girls, because they reach maturity quicker.

[TheBlackChidori]

And how does that help in the long run?

[megabbaut]

Because with maturity, comes more intelligence.

Serious I dont like that you posted this because there shouldnt be any arguement over which gender is better I mean serious gosh
In my opinion Black Chidori you should have never posted this

Both gender are different.

Men have more muscle than a woman so what...
Women can endure more pain than men so what...

Nice way to completely ignore his question.

For those not yet in the know:

You've just witnessed a microcosmic stand-in for the answer. If you do not like the results, you may wish to remove Taka-hebi1 from the gene pool.

We're both dumb compared to aliens. =P

But seriously, guys think with their genitals and chicks think with their hormones. Book smarts are fine, but nothing if you don't have common sense. Finding someone with both is a rare find, if you do, you better not let them go.

Men generally have a higher pain tolerance than women. The only exception is during pregnancy, when women do become progressively less sensitive to pain as they get closer to giving birth. Natural painkillers like endorphins are elevated during pregnancy and labor, helping fight pain.

So yeah, there is that.

And there is no supposed correlation between intelligence and gender. Although scientists are ever so slowly and slightly leaning toward men, due to a slightly larger brain and higher capacity for knowledge.

Oh, you just HAD to stick it up with you FANCY scientific words and statistics and bloo-dah, didn't you?

And this argument really can't even be argued in the first place.

I laughed. Hard. My cousin was once doubled over in pain from cramps because he had to fart really bad. Girls deal with worse cramps every month. So i really believe women have higher pain tolerance. We just don't have as much physical strength.

Intelligence wise, i don't think gender matters. The world is filled with idiots either way.

[NineTalesMinato]

boys, cause most have more ninjutsu and some have extreme strength.

Ok. But it is scientifically proven that we have more active pain killers all the time. Thus having a higher pain tolerance. The only exception to this is when girls are pregnant or on their period, there pain tolerance skyrockets because it releases an arse load of pain killers into them. Otherwise, no. Not at all. Personal experience=/=science. But like I said, things tend to differ on the individual level. But males, as a whole, have a higher pain tolerance.

this is scientifically incorrect. the size of the brain isn't directly related to the level of intelligence and cognitive skills, what matters is the number of synapses you have. men have larger brain than women, but that doesn't mean we have more synapses.
in fact, smaller brains may have a higher number of synapses. for exemple, the largest brain we know belongs to the sperm whale: 7 kg (17.5 pounds). according to your view, sperm whales would be the most intelligent animal on earth lol. human, dolphins and primates have smaller brains than sperm whales, yet it's proved that they have a higher capacity of learning and racionalizing.
also, it's true that men have larger brains than women but you can't say they have a higher capacity for knowledge. there's no proof of that.

There is no correlation between brain size and number of synapses yet. However, I do agree that that portion of my statement was incorrect.

Come on now what are we 5? Intelligence is such a broad, controversial category. This thread serves absolutely no purpose and I don't know what it was intended to do other than make posts with broad sweeping generalizations or start gender wars. The only thing I can say is that in strict regards to statistics and intelligence tests, there are on average more men on the higher end of the spectrum according to the few studies that have been done but there is also a greater variance among men which means there are more men on the low end of the spectrum as well. There are so many immensely complex factors affecting brain development and the concept of intelligence that to try to isolate to one simple causal factor (the presence of a Y chromosome) is ridiculous. In other words, pointless thread.

[mrsticky005]

Hmm..

Who's smarter?

Well I say it depends on who's right.

Are feminists right when they say women are "oppressed" and that
we live in a patriarchy? Then I say men are smarter because men
were smart enough to put themselves in charge and women
were too stupid and got themselves oppressed.

Or

Feminists are wrong and the reality is that women are really
the ones in charge and men are too stupid to figure that out
and that is why the world is in shambles. Because we
don't have men to fix things.

So either...

Women are stupid and oppressed

or

Women are smart and evil.


Take your pick

I just hope I didn't sound too sexist there.
