Men are not more intelligent in women. There's been many studies that showed that girls actually get better grades than boys. I think a big reason now that there are less women with those kinda jobs is because of choice. There's far more pressure for men to be "great" at something than there is for women. A lot more women are content with just living life and raising a family.
I skimmed and I'm not bitching.

Grades are not markers for intelligence. They are markers for how well you can do in school. I personally believe in the theory of multiple intelligences so I think school grades are mostly BS. Based on IQ scores, which I know goes against multiple intelligences, men on average score higher but they also score much lower. It says nothing against women. Being average means you can perform just like everybody else. There is nothing wrong with average.
