Some scholars, notably Christina Hoff Sommers, a fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, charge that misguided feminism is what's been hurting boys.

we make more at the same position but if women are going to post-secondary education at a much higher rate than men

the average women will start to make more than a man

If the american populace re-elected bush last term, by my estimates we might see a woman president about 200 years after the United States collapses.

i read about a study in the newspaper that said women tend to make the majority of purchasing decisions in the household (and by total cash as well)

one of the big reasons the olympics gets so much money is that it draws the female demographic like no other sporting event

even NASCAR does as well

Don't trust anything that bleed for 5 days and doesn't die. According to Mr. Garrison.

well actually no because of the fields they choose, and the jobs they choose. women are also less likely to move for a job since they value social networks etc..

theres a book called "why men earn more" on this. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0814472109?v=glance

you've got it so much better. keep telling yourself that. 😉

Either way men on average earn 43-59% more over the course of a life time 'apprently' by this decent newspaper article. Those were the quoted figures. 59% was for part time female workers. Must be crappy to make less just by being a woman and I'd be p!ssed but I was making enough then sod it all 😛

A lot of women make more then guys though 🙂.

Most guys are just f0cking lazy. A lot of the guys are also lazy as hell. Get as much work done in as little amount of the time. If you get a 70% with working 3 days balls to the wall you don't care too much. Sure if you worked consistently 6 weeks out you may have gotten 75-85% 😛 but the 70% with 3 days of cramming will do for some. Sure as hell is a lot more stressful craming 3 days then spreading it over 4 weeks.

I've met a lot of lazy girls also 😛

I'll say this quickly as I dont want to elaborate...itll just hurt my head when folks dont understand the explanation.

Yes, the largest group of under-achievers is male. But, this does in no way correlate to the assumption that "girls are smarter than boys". In fact, quite the opposite is true. The statistical mean of boys IQ is higher than girls. Boys as a group also have a higher standard deviation in intelligence than do girls. It is therefore unsurprising to see the lowest performing section to be made up of males. On the other end however, males also dominate the top tiers on the intelligence scale.

It is because of this greater standard deviation, that the absolute number of males in the top tier is greater.

We only look lazy because we're so tired from opening jars and doing all the heavy lifting.

FTW

After studies who gives a rats ass about being diligent?! You get the job/ task done and you do more work but of course there are faster way of doing the same job/ task so that is where your smarts come in 🙂
