Oh for god's sake. we've already beaten this issue to death in at least two threads that I know if, one of which was unintentionally started by TRS. This supposed hard-wired difference in math ability between the sexes has been debunked in many ways a dozen times over in many different arenas and is analogous to the nonsense promulgated in 'The Bell Curve' in that it is both pseudoscientific and highly offensive.

My thanks to the gallant Ken G for his defense of my gender against this sexist hogwash.

On that note, I move that this thread be closed and similar threads be discouraged in future.
