/sci/ - Science & Math

Not being taught math never stopped Ramanujan, and suffering in general never stopped intellectuals; if a woman wanted to be smart in the 16th century, she could've done it. Women are just much more social than men, and thus much less likely to emerge from their self-imposed nonage.

How someone could so badly miss the point that most people express in this thread (literally the post above you) is beyond me. Only explanation is that this is decent bait. I'm gonna go with that.

Males are the ones who fucking invented and figured out math from the very start

>>8189459
Men are taught that achievements makes them successful.

Women are taught that having good looks makes them successful

There you go.

Because they've been denied education until the mid 1900s. They're starting to pick up the slack after suffrage. Female Nobel prize winners are cropping up.

You mean several males did and taught it to other males.

You're the definition of feminist cuck, I bet you even think gender wage gap, cultural appropriation; college rape crisis and toxic masculinity are real. :')

lel, this

I just wish we had more threads about celebrating individuals instead of shitting on people.
I mean Hypatia of Alexandria was a conic section badass
And I still haven't read enough math to understand Emmy Noether's work

It's simple and has to do with the courting dynamic between men and women. Because of the way that the courting dynamic works out biologically, women spend way more time on/in relationships in their lives than men do, so much that it dominates most of their time, making it very unlikely that the average woman will become an expert at anything early in life.

It's like this. There are basically two phases of courting: 1. Dating/sex and 2. the relationship. Girls decide which guys get sex/dates, they hold the key to phase 1. Guys decide which girls get a relationship, they hold the key to phase 2. Guys love to have sex/date but getting it is not easy; for women, getting dates/sex in phase 1 is easy. Girls want relationships the most, but they know they must pass through phase 1 to have a chance at it.

Naturally, since girls decide who gets to phase one, not men, and girls really want to get to phase 2 because it's their nature, girls are pretty much constantly in some phase of the courting process for their entire lives. Guys, on the other hand, because they only have the key to phase 2, spend much less time in some phase of the courting process than women.

The discrepancy between the time that men and women spend in some phase of a relationship in their lives is why men tend to become experts earlier and more frequently than women, and it's all because women have free access to phase 1 and men do not. The courting process takes up a lot of attention and time, and men just end up having a lot more free time to focus on other things than women.

Emotional thinking it impairs their ability to reason logically and think abstractly. Ever notice smart women act like aliens compared to normal women?

>>8190585
Rando here, I've never felt any pressure by any of those things in my life. Dating shows are cringefests and metrosexuals are embarrassments. I work out for myself, not for my appearance. I trim my own hair to a buzzcut and I don't give a shit about maintaining flowing locks. No woman I've dated has ever complained in the slightest.

But you're a serial shitposter so...

>>8190703
>Guys decide which girls get a relationship, they hold the key to phase 2
wow, we have a true beta here

if guys takes the decision of the relationship, then why are there so many cuckolds and why do men whine when they are not noticed by women and when women refuse to go beyond letting them fuck them for a night or two ?

>>8190560
>Men are taught that achievements makes them successful.
then why do successful men manage to commit suicide ?
why do successful men manage to give up their success for a random woman who decided acknowledge them ?

Boredum

This question is a poison to the otherwise reasoned mind. Men and women most certainly are of a different nature, but you shouldn't frame it as "why are women so stupid". As if the average male you meet doesn't net out as a moron as well, when you look at the bigger picture.

If you want to understand the machinery of the universe, you need to exposure to it. Get to know a decent spectrum of women and then try to resolve what makes it all tick.

>>8190828
Being in control of the relationship phase makes you beta? I have no idea what you're talking about.

Think about it this way. Phase 1 is guys trying to impress girls. Phase 2 is girls trying to impress guys.

>>8190843
Also, I ought to add on. I've been alone most of my life, and there is obvious utility in having an outsider's perspective. It strips a lot of stuff that's just clutter and gives a clearer picture of what happened, what it did, what it does, and then an ability over time to iteratively refine your inference about why it does it. Whether an object, a group, or humanity in the abstract.

This is a topic I've avoided though. Yes, I can easily watch what a female is doing and predict why and what chain of events its part of, along with where it leads. General motivation, etc. But ultimately I really don't know or directly interact with anyone, and there just isn't the means to construct the bigger picture without it. It's like reverse engineering a system, you can watch what all its parts do and when, see some overall patterns, and even get it to do what you want it to. But that's not the same as understanding its nature, and what it is to do these things.

Something to bear in mind.

Can you?

speculation is a bad argument

>According to a story on The Register, the death of Ian Murdock in late 2015 has been ruled a suicide. This news brings some closure to the sad ending of his life. An interesting note from the article that I never knew before: "he was the Ian in Debian; his girlfriend at the time, Debra Lynn, was the Deb." Debian has truly been a cornerstone in the Linux world, and the founder will be missed.

beta cucks till the end.

Women tend toward the mean more strongly in frequency distribution of most phenotypes.
So there are fewer occupying the more rarified regions of the IQ bell curve.

Which means the most intelligent folks, the ones that come up with paradigm-changing ideas first, tend to be males.
Not sure why this is. But I think maybe it has to do with the fact both sex chromosomes are essentially the same.

Whereas in men, if a recessive alllele ecists on one sex chromosome, that is probably going to be expressed because there may not be any other doninany allele to mask its expression.

Most of this can be explained by one simple fact: in the environment that our ancestors evolved in, fertile women were always of intrinsic value. Evolutionarily speaking, you can never really have too many potentially child-bearing wombs, so it's natural that women would be considered valuable by societies in and of themselves.

Men have no such intrinsic value, you only really need a few dudes to impregnate as many women as you want (genetic diversity considerations being the only real problem). So, men are obviously under more selective pressure to prove they are worthy to breed by being useful to society in some way, and that can be expressed in all sorts of ways.

None of this means that women are stupid or men are better, or that things won't change as society changes, simply that people in the past have adapted to certain roles in order to survive

I know that lazy but smart is a meme but I truly believe this is why women do so much better at uni

Sometimes I wish that we, women, could be looked at as friends and equals rather than an object to be constantly demeaned and kicked around for another's ego.

Deep down, as a woman (and I hope I'm not automatically assumed to be some slut posting here just for attention), I only want to make friends and accel academically. My choices differ from other women, some want to be housewives, other vapid whores.

But who's to say that the choices of a few define us as a whole? It's too lazy, too easy, to automatically place one group into a single category when there are far too many varriables.

There are many men in my area who have potbellies and drink all day and night, rant about Obama being a terrorist and how the earth is flat. If all men were inherently superior beings then why are they as they are? Maybe they were raised in a poor household, their parents never emphasized education, addiction, abuse, etc.

The same absolutely applies to women, and it would make the world a far better place if we could acknowledge this. You see only what you choose.

>>8190703
How do you explain that more and more men admit to love eating pussy?

If men want sex, why do they define ''rape'' and pass laws which forbid ''rape''?

>>8191417
Yes but you forget that the way that men are is beneficial to us.
For instance, OKC is a god send for me. With minimal efforts, I found orbiters very easily and some of them are good in bed (I keep those around the most). I use them for a few months, while still getting providers from the site so that I totally renew the stock at least twice a year.

The best part is that there are all possible men on this site. From the young man who loves to try to impress me thru all the ways that I like to cum, while believing that he has the upper hand, to the sugar daddy who would like to have one last natural orgasm before being on Viagra until he dies, to the 30 yo bored man with some girl who no longer acknowledges him.
Thanks OKC for all the free fun.

>>8191417
No different than me being black and having to deal with stereotypes. You can't change people, you can only change yourself. You'll never change the perception of "women" but you can easily make yourself stand out as unique.

Rape is not conducive to social order.

>>8191517
I don't see what eating pussy and rape have to do with anything I said. Is men liking to eat pussy a revelation to some people? I don't see anything surprising about that.

Married men are frequently controlled by their wives in the relationship, especially as it matures beyond the first several years (more prevalent in some cultures than others). It's very common for men in positions of power to be known to be controlled by their wives, Bill Clinton comes to mind. Why the control seems to shift back to women as the relationship matures isn't obvious to me, but it may have something to do with raising children, which could be a 3rd phase. The woman is all about pleasing the man until she gets what she wants, children, then the power shifts in to her court as she becomes primary caregiver and accepts nothing less than complete control of her children (which the courts will give her if push comes to shove). It's also a common trope in sit-coms (because it's true).

>1.Intelligence is distributed less evenly in men than in women, i.e. there are more geniuses but also more retards among men.
THIS
Plus, women aren't obligated to do much of anything.
Men are compelled to make their own way in the world, women have the option of coasting along.

Rosalind Franklin discovered the structure of DNA. However, she didn't get the Noble Prize: Watson and Crick did so now nobody remembers her.

Marie Curie won Noble Prizes in her work on radioactivity.

Nettie Stevens discovered that genes, specifically the Y chromosome, is what determines sex (male or female)
