  • Male brain "clocks higher" then female brain

    link

    "Their study found that men's brain cells could transmit nerve impulses faster than women's – potentially giving males the intellectual edge. "

    in retrospect this seems obvious, way back when women only had sex with the guys that brought back the kill. The slower ones didn't breed, so that makes this women's fault

    The cpu comparision is probably apt though, cpu speed isn't the sole determinant in computing power.

    i read somewhere, though, that women are better able to think in parallel.

    so while mens' brains might be faster, womens' brains might be more distributed.

      different but equal

        If we were really smart, we wouldn't be behind the emotional power curve like we are.

          Yeah, but we're more prone to overheating. Particularily in the vicinity of boobs.

            True, females have vastly superior software bundled.

              Stupid study. Doesn't prove anything.

              I also question its validity.

                It's like Intel vs. AMD. Now don't ask me who is which side

                  Isn't Intel = Men and AMD = Women?

                  based on clockspeed metrics only..

                    But doesn't the slower side always argue that MHz aren't everything when it comes to speed?

                      AMD doesn't have parallel processing on its chips, yet, whereas Intel has hyperthreading, which is pseudo-parallel processing.

                      Therefore, if we're going to do a stupid Intel/AMD comparison, Intel would be more women than men.

                        Guys waste almost all of their brain cycles thinking about sex, so girls come out far ahead.

                            it proves that our brains clock higher, and yes, that is all that it proves. there is quite a bit about the brain that we don't understand.

                              that is what it is all about, if you don't have children, you don't pass on the "I'm smarter/faster/better" genes. That applies to women as well as men.
