Why did the headmaster of Harvard lose his job for pointing out that women have lower variance in IQ than men and thus there aren't as many successful female scientists? Are American universities really this SJW and anti-intellectual that they try to suppress truths because they are inconvenient?

This is so unlike superior European universities, like Cambridge which allowed Darwin to btfo Christians. Will Americans ever evolve past being dumb redneck chimpanzees?

In the interests of fairness, I would like to remind you all of the scholarships for coloureds going to Oxford. A benefactor many decasdes ago left a great quantity of money to ensure that the best and brightest from the colonies could study as equals. In the modern day, those benefiting from the scheme have demanded that his name be stripped from the award and his statue torn down for crimes against the black race (since he was a colonialist).

That's why we should get rid of them.
95% of them will never be thankful, they will bite the hand that feeds.
The hand should shoot them between the eyes.

I don't understand how people are offended by such a statement. Sure there are less female scientist or top entrepreneurs but there are less stupid, retarded, female losers as well. Moreover, men tend to take more risks and be generally more aggressive both literally literally and otherwise, which can definitely be a double edged sword.

These people sing high praise for diversity, but when facing it - even without any implication of difference in persons' intrinsic value - they lose their shits. Instead of focusing on the equality of value, they are trying to suffocate diversity they claim to love by forcing some absolute ideal of equality of attributes.

US universities are riddled with SJWs propaganda, that's why they have bullshit subjects like "queer studies" or "fat studies". Of course they wouldn't tolerate a man implying women might be less intelligent than men, even if he's only talking about averages, it's basically blasphemy in their eyes. Their stance is that "gender" is all a social construct and shouldn't exist in the first place.

According to your graph, it appears that the average IQ for males and females are the same, and neither distributions are skewed. They're both normally distributed. If your graph is correct, then females having a lower variance in IQ has its cons for being like so outweighed by its pros, given that there are equally less extremes on both ends of the spectrum. Yes there are less extremely intelligent women, but there are also a lot less mentally ill ones too. From the graph alone, more females fall within whatever your range of "acceptable" IQ is than males -- less risk of getting an autist in exchange for less chance of getting a genius.

In short, both distributions are normal, and having high or low variance in IQ has their own advantages and disadvantages. One is not strictly better than others in all circumstances.

It's pretty obvious that it's a multitude of factors, not just this. Did he attribute the problem to just this data? If so that may be why he's under fire. This is the first I'm hearing of this story.

IIRC he merely suggested this might be one reason, and even said he hoped to be proven wrong

Post a link to the story or this is thinly veiled "nation baiting" and belongs on /int/.

Harvard is a communist institution, and it pretty much controls the whole globe.
