Two male academics in the UK claim to have proof that men (of the age 14) have on average 5 more IQ points then women and that “the difference grows when the highest IQ levels are considered.”

There were twice as many men with IQ scores of 125, for example, a level said to correspond with people getting first-class degrees.

At scores of 155, associated with genius, there were 5.5 men for every woman.

IQ has always been a disputed measure of someone’s intelligence. The IQ test they used claims to measure based on “general cognitive ability – spatial and verbal ability.” Interestingly they go on to say:

.. . there is evidence that at the same level of IQ, women are able to achieve more than men . ..

Personally who cares what someone’s IQ is, how much are they able to achieve? If a woman scores lower on an artificial IQ test, but can do more then a man with a higher IQ from the same test, then the woman is smarter in my opinion.
