In a recent issue of in Current Directions in Psychological Science, Stephen Ceci and Wendy Williams of Cornell University explore the differences between men and women working in math-intensive fields, concluding that the main factor behind these differences is the choices that women make—both freely and constrained.

  • Without men ,let me explain :

    NO SCIENCE NO ASTRONOMY NO MATHEMATICS NO BIOLOGY NO INVENTIONS NO INNOVATIONS NO ARCHITECTURE NO PAINTING NO MUSICAL MASTERPIECES NO SPIRITUALITY NO MORALS NO CIVILIZATION NO FAMILY NO TECHNOLOGY NO CINEMA NO PHOTOGRAPHY

    Do I have to go on ?

    I'm a woman btw.

    Men are the builders ,the great ingineers and us women LOVE them this way.

    We REproduce mankind and men PRODUCE what mankind needs ,for the best and the worse.

  • Dude in this video is a wimp and she wears the pants. Most men are wimps who let women walk all over them like the dude in the video. Women suck at math because women like subjects they can bend and manipulate and you can't manipulate math (Most women don't have logic). What discrimination? You mean, Ladies 1st or having a choice not to fight in wars or having the choice to stay at home and rise to the kids. I've never seen a slave master work while his slave stayed at home and raised the kids.

see all

    This penis envy make women rebel to their own husbands. Now the "home sweet home" has been turned into a battlefield because wives are rebel and think they possess the penis. If men don't let their spoiled little girls wear the pants ,then they are "sexist" ,"mysoginist" . Good job ! Women are great manipulators . Men are to love them but they are not to submit . As a result men become women's slaves. Bravo !

    Only weak men fall prey to such lies .

  • @lallylu91

    You are the child ! The spoiled little girl who'd like to be a boy !

    I've never read Freud and I don't need his statements to make my own ones ! I noticed it myself ! Women would love soooooooooo much to be men ! Why is that ?? Today's women have gone mad and they have been made unable to love ,to care ,to give ,to submit. They are the worst poison given to men these days. No wonder that more and more men reject American (and Western )women and go abroad.

  • @framboise595 It's pretty obvious from this statement you are damn fool. You obviously believe in Freud's sexist belief of penis envy, and if you're that gullible then you should believe in Horney's belief about womb envy.

    Both theories are preposterous.

    I honestly laugh at this comment because it's so moronic, it's like talking to a child.

  • @lallylu91

    Women are not satisfied with being women . They think that doing like men is better .They show that they unconsciously think men are superior and all what they do is some kind of Graal to reach . How insane and stupid !

    There's nothing easy with being a man. Men have gone through many specific male hardships throughout History . Women are nonsensical and have contradictory feelings. Why should it be better to make satellites or networks than take care of the next generation ??

  • @lallylu91

    And why are women jealous not to have a penis ? Because they unconsciously regard men as superior beings !

    As if making satellites or creating computer networks was more important than bearing life and take care of the future generation ! What a nonsense ! Men and women complete each other because they are utterly different (brain ,hormones ,desires ...) . Women were not made to compete with men but to have a specific role , crucial for mankind.

    If women were intelligent ,they would never have bought into such nonsense as man-made feminism !

    Women are jealous of not having a penis. If not for women there would not be such nonsense. It is never men who want to be like or do like women. Men know their place and don't complain ,but women don't. Women sow disorder everywhere .Their penis envy is insane .

    Men are the brains and women the womb. What is wrong with that ? Women should have it all so that men don't exist ?

  • Great way to promote your research !!!! It worked for me.....I'm now going to read your paper. Thank you for sharing this.

  • @framboise595 It's sad that you make yourself sound like an object, which is what women have been fighting against and you disgustingly embrace it. It's apparent that you haven't been listening to the world around you, the fact that you believe men have the "brains" and women do not, I bet you believe men even have a larger brain. You could embrace your real potential but you'll continue to be a mindless person and wilt away from your absurd beliefs. Men/women have equal intelligence.

  • @framboise595 Obviously, you grew up in a misogynistic household that unfortunately took advantage of your innocent adolescent mind and lied to you. While you are still eating up the propaganda your family brainwashed you, you stay in the past and will never live in modern times.

    It's rather frightening that you believe your own words. How about you take a history class or two and be informed of the inventions women have created. Let's hope your ignorance doesn't pass onto your offspring.
