Maurice, that is my point entirely. Your political ideology, which you claim to be libertarian but that you appear not to have any real knowledge about, is based upon false premises.

You see that women are under represented in graduate level mathematics and you conclude that women are genetically inferior to men in math which you conclude is based upon women's early maturity. You have made a massive leap based upon your misogynistic tendencies instead of based on facts.

You do not know if women are discouraged, at an early age, from the pursuit of mathematics or if they find it uninteresting and choose not to pursue it. There are many women who are better than most men at mathematics. There are many women who are better than most men at golf and chess. That proves what?

That proves that most men are genetically inferior to some women in mathematics, golf and chess because they mature more slowly? You're making up concrete conclusions based on little evidence.

I know plenty of dogs that have learned to swim, to fetch to do tricks when aged 10 and older. Since you are absolutely sure that old dogs cannot learn new tricks, you obviously do not even make the effort so your observations support your conclusions.

Make the effort. Old dogs, if they respect you, will make the effort as well.
