The average brain weight in adult males is 1,345 grams; in adult females, 1,222 grams, more than 10% less than men. There is no arguing with measurable, quantifiable facts of this caliber.

So, if we use this logic, whales are the most clever creatures in existence? Idiot

>> No.10710718

>>10710681
whales have an enormous body so they need a large brain to manage a large autonomous nervous system. they also have power onboard sonar which must require quite a bit of processing power and they seem to converse with each other in some fashion, however their brain mass to body mass ratio is still less that a human's.

Anotherone is 500 birds head.
The cleverness is not the size, because no matter, when they talk together, the bird is in the 200 set or in the 500 set : truth doesn't dépend on which think it

If they are nice, they won't fight and dream together of something nice. It's not cleverness too ...

200+500=700, it doesn't dépend who is the biggest, since they are together ...

How should an elephant or whale live if it is truly as intelligent as a human? It’s not as if it can communicate well with an oral language or use hands to craft tools. And elephants already show signs of their intelligence by painting, mourning the dead with funerals, and planning revenge attacks.

Not him, but it's true (see the red queen hypothesis). The whole point of males is for them to be disposable probes of the environment with only the best suited surviving and reproducing, as to speed up adaptation to the environment. This is exactly why most males of any species are superior to females physically and intellectually.

A lot of your body mass needs an equal ratio of brain mass to handle it. Not all, but certain parts of the brain are larger on a purely proportional basis as that is their function.

the only reason you think that is because of faulty studies done on developing children
the only time in a humans life when the average male and female iq is equal is at approximately 11 to 14 years (10 and below is unreliable anyway)
which is obviously smack in the fucking middle of puberty
studies done on grown men and women show a consistent and significant difference of 1/3 a standard deviation

1/3 is not a lot
which makes the fact that women as a group have accomplished so little, despite such a minor disadvantage, utterly fucking shameful
