Wheew....Thank God!

According to research I no longer have to try. So I give up. They have proven, once again, that men are smarter. Study showed that, up to the age of 14, there was no difference between the IQs of boys and girls. After that they found a widening gap between the sexes. I think it must have something to do with having to work around breasts or being forced to give blood once a month. Who wouldn't be a little distracted. So they go on about how men achieve more distinctions and just as I'm about to rant that it's a mans world and go off about the ol' boys network and how I only make 70 cents on the "MAN'S" dollar when the study continued to backhand me with a compliment. "The paper will argue that there is evidence that at the same level of IQ, women are able to achieve more than men "possibly because they are more conscientious and better adapted to sustained periods of hard work". Gosh were dumb but we sure are cute with our plucky, dogged determination.
Hee, hee, they think I'm cute.
Well who cares anyway? I mean really. Since society seems to be unable to fix the equal pay for equal work and feminism (tho' having killed off chivalry quite admirably) doesn’t seem to have quite done away with the 'ol boys network, let's use this to our advantage. So don't give us equal pay for equal work. Give us higher pay for less. We are a minority and not all that bright, that should be worth a couple subsidies. Right?

Hey I'll take anyone telling me I'm cute...
Oh, you meant the IQ bit?
I’m glad they did. How on earth do you suppose I would know otherwise? I may be cute but damn I’m dumb.

Men smarter than women? It's just more bovine excrement Perdita, from a couple of aspiring PhDs sucking up to an all male examining board. How come if men are smarter girls do better at school and university? That extra male brain size is only used to think about sex.

Right on Jude. Perpetual adolescence.

They say women are limited because we are at the mercy of our hormones on a monthly cycle. It's true that women may be irritable a couple of days a month, although I've never actually noticed women I've been around having any kind of split personality or anything like that, but let's just concede that point. What you don't hear much about is that sometime at about fifty all that's behind us and we gain in wisdom what we lose in brain cells.

Men, however, are victims of their hormones 24/7 from about the age of about 14 until they attain room temperature. Yet, they think we're the ones with the problem.

I was working at a college during the feminist revolution and there were many weighty debates on campus with female faculty speaking on all kinds of issues like equal rights.

I thought that highly amusing because being superior all my life, I really wasn't interested in being demoted to an equal. The whole notion of equal pay is the socialist construct that we're all completely interchangeable so we should all get the same pay for doing what they see is equal work.

There were even charts drawn up pairing up a "woman's" job and a "man's" jobs. I don't remember the match ups, but they were ludicrous. People should be get paid what the job is worth no matter who does the job. We're individuals not interchangeable cogs the great wheel of moonbattery.
