>>93446506>Firstly, what does women not having the same opportunities as men in the past have to do with them not being as intelligent or scoring high on IQ tests???Your first comment was something about how all of the smartest people in history have been men, (which isn't even true, but I digress.) I said this was a bad argument because women have only recently been given the same opportunities in education and career paths, so that doesn't necessarily mean anything. Women have not been given the chance to demonstrate intelligence historically. Literally all I have said is that the argument is bad. I'm not even making a statement on female intelligence right now, I'm just saying that your point is shitty.
>Not only did women have access to higher education, the same as men did during those timesDepends on the 'times' you're talking about. I assumed you were including prior 20th century as well. Your initial comment just said 'history.' In any case, it is in only very recent times that women were given the same encouragement to pursue a higher education.
>Even TODAY, women still have every single opportunity men have but do not score as high as we do in IQ tests.Well, this is a separate argument. Again, my point is that relying on history as evidence that women are not as intelligent is fallacious. Besides, the average iq levels are about the same. At the very high and low ends of the spectrum there are more men. Do your research.
What you are failing to grasp, in this very simple argument that I am making, is beyond me.
