If we were to do a worldwide test to see find out who was the smarter one it would be men. And it wouldn't be men bcause they are really "smarter" It would be men because there are still so many parts of the world that look at women as lesser beings, so women are deprived of things such as school and are tought there only place is to serve there man and to make babies. Sexism and things of that nature are still very much alive in America though, So I wouldn't really be surprised if men came out on top on a test out here too. The reason being, many pretty women are taught that they can get through life, just by being pretty and education. Im sure though that the smartest women in america are just as smart as the smartest men in America. But becuase of things like sexism, men will get better jobs sometimes. Its not cool, but its the sad truth.

Well, i guess, it depends on the country we live. There maybe country that women are treated lesser than men. That women are born to be just a plain housewife, to make themselves pretty (a decoration at home) and never allowed to be educated. But in other countries, women are born as fighter, they can do what men can do also. They are not just producers of babies. Women have their own say in this world.

I agree that a womens intellectual capacity is just as big as a guy, but women aren't treated as equals in many countries around the world. This does lead to them not getting education which intelligence is based on for most people.
