Women can't handle stress huh? I'd like to see a man take four hours to push a baby out of his asshole and see how cool he is under pressure, lol. How many men can deal with a baby yelling in their face for 20+ hours a day? I'd say working in an office is child's play compared to that. 

To be honest too the math thing is not really my experience, in my experience the girls in my junior high and high school classes often scored higher in math. White males ironically were actually probably the lowest testing group. 

A lot of these studies are not conclusive. IMO most of this stuff is because of cultural issues, girls are pushed very hard to like certain types of things from a young age, as are boys, but if you reversed that I would say in many fields you would probably see a flip. 

What your talking about is more pain than stress. Having a baby is stressful but running a company is a stress that is with you 24/7. I know because I've hard slightly stressful jobs and I decided to leave because I'm not bout that life. You just stay up thinking about it and everything like that. It's not like that for women while pregnant. It is stressful don't get me wrong but it's not a 24/7 stress, then during birth that's more pain than stress. Which it's been shown women have higher pain tolerance apparently.

The math thing has been proven and is done. It's like trying to argue for a flat earth. HS doesn't represent the top levels of math. At the very top men exceed women in general.

They actually did a study on this and it's not cultural at all. Even male monkeys choose to play with trucks and cars over dolls. It's been shown across the board that being a man or women just naturally leads you in one direction. I honestly thought it was weird that people always blamed culture for this sort of stuff. Just seems so obvious it's the difference between men and women. To me people just aren't that "sheepish" that we can be controlled like that IMO. 

There was a program in Brazil trying to show that imposing play styles to boy and girls were due to culture...

So they mixed all toys and put infants to choose their toys... most boys got the boyish stuff and girls the girlie ones...

It's a well know thing that man will play things involving power, domination and things like that (other baby mammal males do the same) while girls will play colaborative or raising family stuff. People try too much to deny hormones and genetics.
