IMHO, I'm successful cos I'm happy and content with what I have, little or much.
To many others, they think I'm not successful at all. It all depends on their perceptions.
/Reminds me ...
List goes on,
Heart goes on,
You jump, I jump
You jump first.
//I'm looking forward to seeing my darling soon! Can't wait!

UkEQ - behind every successful woman is
a good hairdresser,
a good beautian
a good plastic surgeon
- I have none of the above... how? I wish I could find a good hairdresser but since I haven't got any leads, so I simply have to lump it, like many things here....
//Maybe Sinead O'Connor's hairstyle will come back into style... whaddaya'll think?

so tell us what made you so successful...lol

Eagle No problem..any time..
Seriously on the Thread, illigence has nothing to do with gender, it all depends on ones IQ and the way they exposed to information, through genral knowledge education and up bringing..
But IQ is a must. Every one of us has this God given ability, but no every one has the same amount of it..

lool UkEng youre one of your kind, you should give some intensive courses to people like panda to appreciate EVE..
Exactly. I probably would have played dumb back then to get a boy I liked.
Soo.... UkEQ, are you getting all the girls flowers, chocs and perfumes at our next gathering? How nice!
/There're at least 10 of us, right? Or more... ;0)

men gets crazy over women and vice versa. they can't live without each other.
Gypsy, Yes. Good point. At that stage, young girls are not as self confident as crusty old birds like me.

Yes, intelligent, you are intelligent.
No one is actually stewpide, even the centipede ... Some people are just uneducated and education can be many things, not necessarily just academic.
/Ok.. HSBC is not a stewpide bank. I apologize for renaming the bank.

The women are playing dumb though eagle, which is why looking at test scores from high school is not the best way to judge women's intelligence, because these girls are probably not trying their hardest.
hey guyz, how come men always try so hard to bash women?? jealousy?
Eagle..I thought the saying was that there are plenty of fish in the sea..
Now how do we define a sex of a fish..according to your statement that there are other waiting for the chance to take your place. I guess that you are refering for other men to take the place?

Gypsy - "Gender only comes in as a factor because culturally women are taught to "play dumb" for men."
Weeellll... I agree with you generally but specifically, I have to agree with Panda's advice above, to an extent. Smart women do play dumb if there is something they really want to achieve. People can criticize it as manipulative but some call it managing egos for the greater good and a bigger picture. It's all a matter of what the (subjective) assessments and limits are. Btw, some call it an art of war or battle plan.

Is any one talking about me here "Intelligent".
Yes last time I checked I was still intelligent.
Peace.
Gypsy said If a man can't handle a smart woman, then he isn't much of a man and not worth the woman's time. "
Precisely. From a woman's PoV.
From a (smart) man's PoV - it's to his advantage to have a smart (and emotionally stable) woman beside him. So to those who have one such treasure, do remember to pay attention and take care of them, cos there will ALWAYS be other alternatives waiting for the chance to take your place. Lol!

Intelligence is relative. Gender is not the issue, it's access to education, culture, confidence, etc. Gender only comes in as a factor because culturally women are taught to "play dumb" for men.
THE GUY WROTE THIS THESIS UNFORTUNATELY LIVED AND STUDIED IN ENGLAND AND THE BEST PRIME MINISTER THEY HAD AFTER WW-2 IS MARGRET TATCHER A WOMEN
PERSONALLY I BELEIVE WOMEN A LOT SMARTER THAN MEN THATS THE REASON GOD GAVE THEM THE RESPONSIBILITY OF TAKING CARE OF CHILDREN AND PREGNENCY
THEY ARE EMOTIONAL , BUT CARING, INTELLIGENT AND PATIENT
I CHALLENGE ALL THOSE MEN - CAN YOU MANAGE THE HOUSE WITH TWO SCHOOL GOING CHILDREN AND A "WHO CARES" HUSBAND AS NEAT AND CLEAN AS YOUR WIFE
RESPECT WOMEN THEY ARE THE ONE WHO KEEPS SANITY IN THIS WORLD
THERE MAY BE EXCEPTIONS , BUT EXCEPTIONS ARE THERE EVERY WHERE
Ok. Just read wiki link above ...
Just my thoughts, without the benefit of reading further into his works and other articles by other authors:-
1) From England, spent formative years in South Africa, French mother, teen years in Canada - meaning pretty good exposure to different cultures.
2) Father building contractor - unlikely to be spoiled rich kid - probably like most of us working people - would have learned quite a bit from experience and hardships.
3) B.Sc. in psychology from Birkbeck College at the University of London in 1970, and, in 1973, received his Ph.D. from the London School of Economics for work on altruism in children.
- Well qualified. (And I'm not just saying that because my qualification is from the same Uni). The quality of British education was actually superior in the past, more so in the 1970s. Currently, fallen into some disrepute due to economic considerations
4) Continued his work at the University of Oxford until 1974 - for him to get in, in the first place, must have high IQ. While it's probably for personal reasons that he left for Canada after 1974 but it could also be a lack of EQ that saw his tenure at Oxford for only 1 year (after PhD in 1973).
Not really a quack... So, what exactly has he written about Altruism? I am Altruistic but I'm not white.
"Genetic similarity theory
heritable component in altruism ... gst - "states that individuals tend to be more altruistic to individuals who are genetically similar to themselves (kin selection), and less altruistic, and sometimes outwardly hostile to individuals who are less genetically similar."
- Very wrong as far as I am concerned. I am altruistic to people of any race who are less fortunate than me... err... and maybe I should qualify that to add ... those who are genuinely in need and who are humble, who don't lie to get as much from me as possible.
- Having said that, actually generally his statement is true by observation. While it's the current trend against forming cliques and thus holding on to narrow mindedness, it does happen very often that "birds of a feather flock together" - comfortable to have shared or similar values, experiences, backgrounds, etc.
r/K selection theory
Rushton's book Race, Evolution, and Behavior (1995) ... "purports to show that East Asians and their descendants average a larger brain size, greater intelligence, more sexual restraint, slower rates of maturation, and greater law abidingness and social organization than do Europeans and their descendants, who average higher scores on these dimensions than Africans and their descendants."
i) "average a larger brain size, greater intelligence"
- Where's the substantiation for this?
I'm from East Asia and I think the majority are daft - because they are poor and do not have the opportunities to be properly educated.
The education system of rote learning to pass exams to get high grades also simply churns out people who don't use their God-given brains to think.
Actually, with this lack of opportunity comes the drive to improve themselves. That attitude is what makes the difference, from the West who have the opportunities given to them. East Asians are not smarter, they have learned to be very resourceful.
Religious beliefs keeps many of them ethical in their resourcefulness. This is not to say that all or the majority are ethical - I have no comment on that.
"more sexual restraint, slower rates of maturation, and greater law abidingness and social organization"
- This has nothing to do with race but religious beliefs - whether it be Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, Christianity, etc.
But at the end of the day, his motivation and funding trashes his credibility though... And his methodology and research under duress are also questionable. When people are forced to do anything, they will most probably lie out of spite, so the results of whatever survey would not be totally reliable. Too many limitations to his research to be credible. Needs to change approach to do damage control. If he's not bothered, we're also not bothered about what he has to say.

Men may be more intelligent but women use their intelligece more intelligently & that's why have men at their disposal.
Intelligence is just the ability to put together a lot of facts to a relatively better scale. Intelligent animals, intelligent systems, life forms etc the list continues as intelligence is a relative term.
To be human needs wisdom and understanding more than intelligence. This is found only by living as a society whose basic unit is a family, that's a man and a woman.
So never compare between a man and a woman!
the thing is women r not creative.. & they cannot perform at all under emotional pressure...
Its not a matter of Sex ...Depends on Indivisuals...
FS..women score more on emotional intelligence??? You sure?? :)

I can’t believe he said that
Only Gays think man and woman’s are equal
Men are very intelligent
I am sorry Ladies but that’s true
Success is as high as hard you hit the ground
men and women are the same being with the same origin.
whoever is better, well this depend on who's opinion ... they said all me are created equal, physically, mentally and spiritually ... so who is better then?
a great professor once said : " find me a women with brain, i find a horse with ... ah... wings"
I insist, it's herself :)...give your verdict even if it's worst :)
Ok behind every successful woman is
a good hairdresser,
a good beautian
a good plastic surgeon
and the list goes on..lol

HE WHO DARES WINS

...A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.
Na Panda not convincing enough (got to agree with some part of the above report lol)..try again before I give you my verdict..
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
Ukeng, you want the truth? herself!
Ok Panda who is behind a successful woman?
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
lot of man are in high level of govermnents. so they are successful man, if we followw the proverb we can conclude that great women are behind these successfull guys.
BUT!! why there are incredible things happening in the world, are not you (women) doing your job as a advisors?
Just checked Wiki,,,,another wacko.
No further comment.
Your are one inteligent man DaRuDe..
Panda what can I say about you....lol

HE WHO DARES WINS
Scarlett you are one smart woman too..

-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
lol who needs enemy when i have such admiring me pals
oh panda me will report you to qatari for hijacking topic :D
and the fact that he sits and absorbs everything everyone says...I hope he doesn't have a photographic memory or we'll all be in trouble!
panda...as far as the offspring of those people..I think they are heads of many governments...
Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked,the good fortune to run into the ones I do,and the eyesight to tell the difference.
nicely said Scarly.. not forgetting Da's evil smile and weird beard on the other end..

HE WHO DARES WINS
ROLF at Scarlett, I could imagine what kinda of product they'll get lolllll
Da, still lost what's that tranny lol
behind you is all of us women holding onto your furry tail because we know there are sharp teeth on the other end!!!
Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked,the good fortune to run into the ones I do,and the eyesight to tell the difference.
Charan's fav a ladyboy
he knows what I say and agrees with me!! Actually behind every successfull man there is usually a good woman who supports and encourages him.
Panda...there are stupid women just like there are stupid men...and unfortunately they still have the ability to reproduce...
Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked,the good fortune to run into the ones I do,and the eyesight to tell the difference.
DA, what's tranny didn't find it in my dico :)
panda what I am saying is that the stupid man does not have to be behind the stupid man but could be beside him..are you getting what I am saying...lol
Da expalin please..
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
not necessary gay UKeng, he's just stupid
well well well could be a tranny too :D
panda so your saying is that a Stupid man is gay?
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
Ukeng, behind a stupid man there is another stupid man :)
she-wolves behind the wolf....panda is negligeable :)
panda you wrote
"behind every Great man there is a women"
what about
so whos is behind a stupid man
my saying is "behind every succesful man their is a woman"
"behind every unsuccessful man their many women"
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
behind every successful man there is always a women
you guys can see who is supporting me in Social Group :D
wait till i see you next time and your Mr. and tell him what you said :D
women PRETEND to not be as intelligent because men can't handle women that are more intelligent than they are...
Scarlett, Agree with you, but (just between me and you lol), there are lot of women are very very stu....than man isn't it :).
My sincere respect to all smart women!
behind every great man there is a great women, shoving him from behind!!!
Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked,the good fortune to run into the ones I do,and the eyesight to tell the difference.
Agree and it's good to stand on her own cause, but they shouldn't use the man's weakness.
women would have to take a HUGE step down...
just kidding...seriously, they are basically equal in intelligence. Men tend to be more adept at mathematics, while women are generally better at the sciences, arts and languages. Part of what men see is what culture has taught women to do...women PRETEND to not be as intelligent because men can't handle women that are more intelligent than they are. Sad but true..Thankfully, today's cultures are finding that that farce doesn't get them anywhere so they are coming to the forefront and being themselves.
aamir_at...I'm afraid you are the exception to the rule...best be quiet as you are showing your lack of intelligence with your post.
Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked,the good fortune to run into the ones I do,and the eyesight to tell the difference.
Yet funnily enough every great woman has to stand on her own cause men are too intimidated.
but sometimes I agree with this arabic proverb.
"behind every Great man there is a women".
Universally, men tend to score higher on certain specialized skills. In the real world, that means they might be better at reading maps or navigating etc.. Women score higher in terms of language development and emotional intelligence. But most experts agree there is no real, important overall difference when it comes to gender and intelligence.
Aamir...Male conspiracy cannot explain ALL female failures.
Gypsy, do you need a plumber? just call me I can do it ;)
Da, don't mess with pipe line this is my area :)...another thing don't hijack :)
Oh gyps..didnt know that Da is an all purpose dude..lol
Da you are the best:)
If a man can't handle a smart woman, then he isn't much of a man and not worth the woman's time.

WOMANS BORN STUPIDS
Success is as high as hard you hit the ground
i fixed something else too but i dont know if it worked the next day or not.
tipak tipak tipak tipak the drops.
My advice to all women:
women listen to me, for your interest it's better to show to a man that you are more stupid then him even if you are smarter. in general man doesn't like a smart women, he feels humilated and he doesn't understand what she wants. Regards :D
Genaralising smartness based on a study of few does not mean that it should be believed.
So my theory is that yes man might be intelligent, but it is the woman who has more common sense.

HE WHO DARES WINS
Da's the smartest person on the planet. He fixed the light in my backyard. :P
Guys are intelligent.
darude is a guy.
therefore darude is intelligent.
intelligent, but irrelevant.
i agree with me thats all
:D
Here's his Wiki profile. His research is funded by an alleged white supremacy group.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Philippe_Rushton
Gyspy: you are an exception. the thread is not about you.
Can his research be really believed ?
Firstly, he is a psychologist at The University of Western Ontario .. enough said..
Secondly, his last paper suggested that intelligence is influenced by race.
well, thank you, gypsy, for reinforcing my point.
I agree with Gypsy
Cheers !!!
This guys a quack. He's been dispproven in ALL of his previous theories. Especially the ones about intelligence based on race.
yes and the proponent of this study is male, who selectively used intelligence measures where males have been proven (long ago) to excel at. nice try.
