As far as I know, (desu I have no source) the two most important factors for intelligence are
1. Signal speed of the neurons
2. Degree of interconnection of the neurons in the frontal cortex.

Because even after all these years we don't actually really know how intelligence manifests itself in our brains. Actual brain size and intelligence might not even relate. Even correlations seems to be rather poor.

there's certainly at least a weak correlation. larger networks are needed to accurately model complicated functions. there are even a few theoretical results about this.

The majority of intellegnce comes from the x chromosome. A female with an imperfect x will be compensated by the second x chromosome. This is why few females are completely retarded and have a higher median iq. A man with a perfect x and perfect y will outperform a female with 2 perfect x's due to redundency. Its why men have a higher iq ceiling but lower floor. Check my meme science or dont.

When I say leftists I am referring to typical dumb SJW types.

There are many scientists who are left-leaning, like Prof. Simon Baron-Cohen (one of the guys behind this study: >>9261567), but they're still smart enough to understand that male and female brains differ, on average.

So okay - perhaps I shouldn't be saying leftist. Let's forget political designation, because it's completely irrelevant to this board.

The fact of the matter is that male brains, on average, are larger than female brains. Also, male and female brains differ in other ways (on average). And our behaviour is different (on average) - and there's a lot of evidence to suggest that there are biological reasons for this (chiefly hormones).

Simon Baron-Cohen, and his team at Cambridge, have done a lot of work in this area. I highly recommend watching just 3 minutes of this video from 22:20, where he explains some of his research: https://youtu.be/p5LRdW8xw70?t=22m20s

Also here's another video of him talking about sex differences of the brain: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/video/2010/nov/15/brain-neuroscience-psychology

More interesting facts about brains:

- rightwingers have a significantly higher incidence of psychopathy and Machiavellianism (cynical, manipulative behavior), two components of the so-called "dark-triad" personality type. The other component is narcissism, where they also score high.

- rightwingers tend to have enlarged amygdala, which is the fear and aggression center of the brain. It's associated with stalking behaviors and paranoia.
