They just reported this. In Australia they compiled all the figures on senior school students and heres the results.
Certain men are smarter. A small group of Males recorded the higher results of the sexes.
The average Females is smarter then the average Male.
Majority of males got lower scores then the average female
So the average female is smarter then the average male however the smartest males are smarter the the smartest females

You have to understand that there is a difference to simply being born smart because of your gender OR being smart because of a predisposed intelligence.

In which case men are more likely to be intelligent and well versed in whatever their field may be

since history men usually be the productive and women just take care of chsldrena dn house jobs that made men use their brain more and i guess it enabled men a more powerful brain but that doesnt mean women cant me smarter
you are the smartest as much as you use your brain woman or man doesnt matter

That's a great answer. It makes sense that, like evolution, we've evolved to survive in our environments. It was necessary for men to be clever out in the wild. But it was also necessary for women to be clever to run and maintain a house without any modern conveniences. Very interesting...

I don't think it can really be generalised. It may be that men are better on average than women at maths and women better on average at English but I know it's not always true. When I was at school, the smartest kid was good at everything! I am a lot better at both maths and English than my partner, I think it usually depends on the individual although, I do think there may be a tendancy for men to be better at certain things and women at others, it's certainly not always true and I also think that some things which one is better than the other are because that's what they have concentrated on. I would say it was true that more boys were interested in maths and more boys continued with maths and science at college and university and I think there were very few boys in my English class when I was at college so, I don't think that men are inherantly good at one thing and women at another but I do think they have a tendancy to steer towards different subjects which makes it seem like this is true.

I think men and women they are thinking in different way, so they are good at different field .I agree men is good at math and women good at language.

A whole gender or race should not be bashed for the shortcomings of some of those people. Men, for the most part, are better at focusing on a goal and completing a project. Women, on the other hand, are better at getting input from a lot of places and coming up with a solution that meets the needs of more people.
