I know the current scientific consensus on this is that the sexes don't differ in terms of general intelligence, and if we think men are intellectually superior to women, it's cultural bias.

I know this is just anecdotal evidence, however my own observation is that in intellectually demanding areas, usually men dominate. For example, this political forum. I really think almost everybody here is a guy. And I have to say some of the smarter people here, are very very smart compared to the women I know in real life. I can never, ever, imagine having the types of conversations here with my female friend in real life. And everywhere online, you will see mostly men, too. I really think this points to that the sexes are innately different. I am not saying being more likely to be online means men are smarter, just that men and women are motivated differently, they are different in important ways, and they are attracted to different things.

I mean, let's forget about sexism for a second. Ask yourself, has your personal experience been that women are just as smart as men? Be completely honest with yourself.

but i also think the dumbest subset of humans tend to be male in any population. women aren't sending men 100$ to buy their used underwear. male only fans models cater to gay men. most victims of online scams are male. etc.

Long story short, the hypothesis is that while men and women don't tend to differ in their mean IQ scores, men exhibit greater variability, which means that there is a greater number of male than female persons of very low intelligence, up to and including intellectual disability. The flip side of this phenomenon is that there is also a greater number of extremely intelligent or even prodigious men than women.

You do claim to be a female and you haven't exactly set the bar very high.

I’ll tell you one thing, most women are smarter than you. That should hurt given how much you’re a basement dwelling white dick of a bloke….

And no, you are no man, but you are male.
