>>once you control for maths skills, differences in maths skills disappear
>okay this is epic
but somehow, they do not even entirely disappear....
so even when you remove differences in math skills, women are still worse at math, what a mystery, i wonder what sort of math was used to produce this math?
> ONCE YOU PRETEND WOMEN ARE AS GOOD AS MEN, THE DIFFERENCE DISAPPEARS
>Does this prove that women are pathological liars?
no, they dont even know they are lying about it, its hubris
>people who like math more are more likely to think they're good at math
whoa...
>self-assessed mathematical ability
wow!
have you guys ever seen the "new math"?
Maybe the point of it is to make math harder for men.

Ok so they get good mathematicians male and female, and the male ones are constantly better that their female counterparts.
So its prove the opposite that the title.
don't believe it without checking it out
it makes things more complicated at a basic level but I saw for myself that it makes multiplication and division of a large number of digits much easier
I'd guess the real problem is with the teachers not having even a basic grip on what they are teaching (eg that one kid getting the exact answer counted wrong because 'the new math' wanted the rounded answer - that's the teacher being a dumbass)
