Anecdotal but it may have to do with both. Men have to be successful financially to get a partner so they are inclined towards entrepreneurship to get success, fame and women. Women aren't expected to do such things and they don't need to be successful in their career to get a partner. Men are expected to be funny while looking good to attract a mate so they develop their sense of humour. Women are expected to be motherly and don't need to be logical so they see little gains from going into the sciences. It is socially structured as a result of biology and nature itself suggests so.
A study showed that women have IQ's close to a 100 with little deviation towards the high and low end while men's IQ is spread across the spectrum. This is why most business people and astrophysicists are men while most people in mental asylums are men as well. It makes sense, men are throwaway by nature as 1 man can impregnate many women for the growth of the populace but every woman is needed to give birth to children so nature is experimental with men.

Yeah, you lost me here. What study are you talking about? Even if that's the case, there are still extreme flaws with measuring by one's IQ. Women don't need to be logical? In fact, it's the exact opposite, women need to be logical because would you want an illogical person raising a child?

Women need to be logical but don't require the reasoning abilities needed in stuff like stem fields. Everyone needs practical intelligence, that goes without saying. This is my interpretation based on what I've experienced in school, college, events, gatherings and talking to people from all walks of life.

I'm not saying IQ is everything but there is a reason it is used as a metric in so many areas.
