can I modify your question to WHY ARE WOMEN SO HIGHLY SMARTER THAN MEN ?

No.

Definately men are smarter than women

Nope, men are not smarter than women. I guess it depends on the individual. It's just as unfair to say that "men are smarter" as it is to say "women are smarter". Each individual is different.

Of course, the answer is no. But we need some highly sexist people to make this topic more interesting!

YEAH RIGHT ! not when all of them r 'chikening' out ! silence means agreement shey ?

Scientifically proven, it's five years difference of higher intelligence quotient IQ in favour of women compared to men in all ages I AM SO PROUD TO BE CREATED A WOMAN !

ALSO, the ultimate, this explains it all A woman can smartly/successfully single handedly run a home with kids, and it all results well now turn it around

No, men arent smarter than women. They just always try to 'prove' that they are smarter than women.


They know they aren't smarter than women, so they act as though they r smarter, but really, they aren't smart.

Without a doubt, men are generally smarter than women. There are some smart women, but they are only a handful.

Thank you, dauda. I love you. Any response from the ladies?

lol

why did a woman not come up with the concept of

Nairaland

face of festac

hi5

yahoo

msn

google

yahoo messenger

computer

electricity

fire extinguisher

airplane

to mention but a few ,,,,,



it's right to fight for yourselves

I feel you

But you gotta agree on this

God took the form of a man, and has always been recognised as HIM

I aint saying he is man or woman, but He made men the head

You can't overthrow us

We run things

Now, I hope I have answered your question ?

The best thing women do are stuffs they do in :

Sex and the city, Desperate Housewives, Footballer's wives  **crap**

ps: women are also smart because I know the lady behind

Her name is Dupe

Because they are busy doing more important thing like umm, populating the world so that the human species does not go extinct . I could make a list of more IMPORTANT things that were invented by women but, I'd rather not.

Bolex, u r not serious.

a CLEAR TOPIC WOULD BE PREFERABLE! The issue of being smart has nothing, absolutely nothing to do with being a Girl or a Guy. I think its rather natural.

@bolex

I am not supposed to be doing dis but i hate being sentimental, If woman can't invent the afformentioned, it still doesnt change a thing, continuity is what keeps us going and of what use is all these invention without life.we need continuity and we need life.

@ all

Shey una nova see man wey dey cheat woman inside exam hall? abi una nova see female professor wey dey teach men to succeed in life ni,i don see guy wey woman dupe and vice versa, so its natural (in my own Opy)

what the heck! are men smarter than women? Actually i know we could focus on both sides and say it depends on the individual, but i'm not interested in that crap now. if my buddy bolex feels he can sit up there and talk about the inventions of men, i'm sorry to say "that is so so myopic" how are you sure these guys came up with those inventions by themselves, do you want to tell mii of a certainty that these guys all thot up these things and single handedly carried it out, forget about Nairaland, let's talk about the bigger stuffs. (not to disrespect the admin).

@ Bolex

Did you brag about guys coming up with ideas like

watch the majority of the things outlined they have to do with computer, to amaze you, did you know that a woman (Grace hopper) invented the first compiler? i didn't think so (just incase a compiler is a software program that makes other programs easier to write) and did you know that the same woman invented COBOL, a programming language which enables computers to communicate with one another? NO huh? Did you also know she was the first to "debug " a computer? i really do not think you knew all these 'because if you did you wouldn't proudly pronounce all the inventions of men which were possible due to the breakthrough of a woman.

Medicine

Gertrude Elion invented the leukemia-fighting drug 6-mercaptopurine and drugs that facilitated kidney transplants.

Rachel Fuller Brown and Elizabeth Lee Hazen invented the worlds first useful antifungal antibiotic - nystatin

(just to mention a few)

Sincerely i don't think you want to get mii started on this.

hollun a second, was the question about men being smarter than women! i think i just proved that to you by educating you on this. Go to bed with some added knowledge it costs nothing.  (no hard feelings buddy)

Studies suggest that women are slightly more intelligent (or so i read somewhere)
but in my opinion, there are substances in make up, chick fashion, and sitcoms (desperate housewives,sex and the city etc etc) that reduce IQ drastically. So the net effect is, go figure

Men are not smarter than women. But there appears to be scientific evidence that the male and female brains perceive spatial geometry differently. This may give men a slight edge when reading maps and dealing with mathematical problems, but doesn’t necessarily make them any smarter than women.

Also because men undergo less seasonal hormonal changes, they tend to be more focused over a long period of time. Monthly menstrual cycle changes do affect the moods of women, but I do not think this is serious enough to affect brain productivity.

The reason why men have made most inventions is because societies have largely been male-dominated. As things even out, we can expect to see more innovative companies started up by ladies.

Not just that, but as more Africans become educated and partake in science and technology, we can also expect more high-tech discoveries to come from blacks.

@ Olex

nice comment, i won't praise you totally though , but you have a point saying the society has been more male dominated that's why men have been able to invent more, but with women launching out i believe the number will increase, statistics has it that in the nearest future female inventors will hit about 50% of inventors, rising from the present 20%.

Source, please. Link to the source of the statistics you are referring to!

@ seun

there you go seun read the last paragraph.

Medically, women have a tendency to be smarter. Even in academics, even if the girls do not come out as first position, all the females in the class usually do very well. But really they dont use much of their brains, or should i say they are not given the opportunity to use their brain in this world we live in, coz first of all, they consider themselves as the weaker sex, they are schooled in that idea until they begin to pride and glory in it and so men take a baton on that advantage, which in turn weakens everything about them(women), especially when they start giving birth.

Tell a woman to sit down and think, she wont think, as in she wont just think.
Tell a man to sit down and think, he will think, even if it will be something totally stupid.
Leave her alone until shes in a fix, she will think, and you might be surprised all together.
Leave a man alone, until he's in a fix, thats when he stops thinking.

I wonder where tha men are

This is a battle o

Hey , women

if you are so way smarter than men

why aint ya taking the whole responsibilties we take

huh ?

what responsibilities if i may ask?

****thinking****


you know this is a sensitive thread

& for me to keep replying ya'll is what might cause kasala

I can see the whole gals wanna chew me out already

lol

anywayz, sometimes women are smart

But men are smarter than women

la la la i don't agree convince mii

if we put it in war terms, women are using the gorrila war tactice which is the most dangerious of all.
if u cool down u will see women. very smart beings. they operate from behind and go a long way in out-smarting men.
women, na u biko

We all know the truth. It's like saying God is a woman

look this is silly, anyone that thinks and believes that he/she is very smart is the dumbest person in the world. the smartest person as far as i know and believe is the one who says that he/she knows nothing and is ready to learn even thought u know he/she is smart.


Guys, i'm saying it again, stop tooting ur horns!!! everyone is smart i their own way. i pray we all live to see the day, time and century when women will overtake men bocs all the men(at least most of them) are thinking of how smart they are which in fact they are not and nothing else.

It's a question just like this that cost the Harvard President his job,

I will sit on the fence and watch on this one
