He was a ginger though, so it really doesn't count.

Gingers don't count alright but when you look at Noble prizes and great inventions and discoveries Men do far better.

In fairness, we women have to do the same work as men and still get dinner ready, give us a break.

Men are generally smarter. Although the girls do generally work a lot harder in school, theres no denying that.

If you actually want an actual answer, a good bit of evidence shows that women tend to bunch together intelligence wise, whereas men tend to either excel or fail.

Thats why most genius's have been men, men tend to be outliers.

When you say "im neutral" does that mean "I'm an hermaphrodite" ?

How many women do you know who can multi-task.

And many, many other geniuses like the abote, were by and large not women.

In fairness though, women were excluded from formal education for a huge amount of human history. Aren't there more women than men going into law and medicine and stuff now?

Another point is that, in my opinion, women may not appear smart for the same reason they don't appear funny. We don't need to be, we have tits. Girls do tend to play dumb around lads as well, the simpering sex kitten is a lot more appealing (ie less threatening to the fragile male ego) than the smart chick. Smarts don't get you a ride if you're a wimmin.

Can you prove that they weren't women?

Also Nikola is a girl's name

Also existed in a time when women were not allowed an education.

The only thing this thread will prove is that there's more men on boards then women!

Incidentally many famous female authors had to publish under male names to even get published. This was true for the Bronte sisters for example, who all published under the male names Currer, Ellis and Acton until they were well established.

Nelle Lee was told to use her middle name Harper when she wrote To kill a mockingbird, so people wouldn't know she was a woman.

Even in the present day, JK Rowling wanted to publish under her name Joanne Rowling, but her publishers told her she had to publish under a gender neutral name as boys 'wouldn't buy wizard books written by a woman'.

A quick internet search would suggest that disposable nappies, an alteration to the ironing board, and a couple of things to do with nappies number among our contributions to the world. Oh lordy.

However, genius doesn't automatically mean "inventor".

Brainy doesn't automatically mean "genius". As was pointed out, men may have the corner on genius, but women may have the corner on basic cop on type intelligence.
