Finally, proof that men are more logical than women

So I am a logic tutor at my uni and the semester is coming to a close and I just counted up the hours for the whole semester in the log book. Females have signed in for 132 hours worth of logic tutoring altogether. Men have signed in for 3.
If that is not proof, ladies and gentlemen, I don't know what is.

I think that proves nothing, other than that women are more open to learning new thing, which IMO is a sign of intelligence.

the men are learning it, they just don't need the help of tutors in order to pass/do well in the class.

I don't have access to that information. This thread is mostly a joke but I will tell you that I have taken three logic classes it just seemed to be the case that the men in the class absorbed the material much more quickly and easily than the women. The women often times seem to have to simply have to memorize inference rules, and often voice that they in fact do not understand why a given inference rule "makes sense", whereas I have never heard a man voice the same kind concern.
Also all three of the logic tutors that work here are male.

We have plenty of males come in for math tutoring, engineering tutoring, foreign language tutoring, statistics tutoring, accounting tutoring, economics tutoring, written composition tutoring... just not logic tutoring. I would say the percentage of women coming in for tutoring overall is very slightly higher, but then again the percentage of women enrolled in the university is slightly higher overall

thread is pointless without knowing the grade distribution too
and whether it was the same few girls coming in a bunch of times or a bunch of girls all coming in. that could skew the data.

MW, you are making your conclusion without seeing the grade distribution first?
and as i said above, You haven't said how many girls were coming in or whether it was just a handful of neurotic ones.
did they need extra help because they were English Second Langugage, etc?
Mr. logic tutor not being very logical here.

Did you create the thread to promote intelligent conversation? Nope, because you refused to answer anyone seriously responding to your posts beyond "LOL @ TAKING THREAD SERIOUS".
If your intention wasn't to hold an intelligent discussion on the topic posed, than the only other result from a thread like this would be flamebait--eventually someone will take offense to the idea of women being inherently less logical than men being used as a joke.
Logically, one can only come to the conclusion that this thread sucks.

I honestly have no clue what a logic class even entails, I'm not gonna start an argument that women or men are inherently more "logical", but I will say this, throughout my 20 years of living, I have met a much much larger number of men who are in the pursuit of knowledge when compared to women. I love meeting girls who are wholeheartedly interested in the learning and understanding the way the world works, but those girls are few and far between. Men on the other hand, just seems naturally more curious, they're more willing to take risks, they have more driven towards figuring shit out

Well, the majority of the individuals in my graduate school are female, but that is probably because of the kind of profession that you end up going into with the degree you get upon graduating (college level language teaching). I meet plenty of very smart, very logically-oriented women, and this thread honestly was meant to be a joke. I know what a proof is, and this doesn't come anywhere close to constituting one. I also know what my experience is, and my experience shows me that women in general have a more difficult time grasping the concepts presented in symbolic logic than men.

Actually certain hormonal studies have shown men to be more logical than women due to certain hormone balances.
Testosterone is known as the empathy killing hormone.
And i'm sure every man here has seen what those extra doses of estrogen do to their significant others.
When I clicked this I was looking forward to reading an actual new study that has been done.

I think my evidence is more conclusion than that evidence tbh

So evidence of girls signing a book more often than guys, is better evidence than chemical evidence and how they effect thought and emotion? K

I agree 100%.
Hormones are drugs and they do effect the mind. Trust me, I know better than most.
Men are much more logical in general than women.
The brain structure of a man differs from that of a women. Women are stronger socially, men are stronger logically. Men work their right and left sides of their brains rather independantly compared to women. This allows a man to see things in black and white more easily, women can get overwhelmed by nuances of a situation due to information overload. Women are better at multitasking in general, men are generally better at focusing on one thing at a time. Both have clear advantages and disadvantages. Men can see women as indecisive, women can see men as simple minded.
In simple terms, men are based in fight or flight, and women have another option available to them, empathy. This can change everything, for a woman, even conflict is not always black and white. A woman is more likely to side with someone, not because they are right but rather, because the woman is able to understand where the other is coming from.
A man sees in black and white and a woman sees in color, if you will. There are advantages to both. Black and white, right or wrong, fight or flight... logic. Color is much more nuanced and complex but it can seem quite trite to someone driven by logic.
Men tend to rely on logic so it can be mind blowing when half the world's population operates differently. That said, being less logical works for half the world's population, so perhaps logic is over rated.

This seems like a small amount of correlational data. You can't really claim that you have proof. There is always an outlier.
Can you explain more about your tutoring and your statistical analysis?

I read your second reference and it seems to undermine your belief that men are logically superior.
Quote:
Frontal Cortex Responsible for much of our decision making ability, it is fatter and more complex in women. Some neuroscientists believe that women are hard-wired to be better decision-makers and problem-solvers.
I have read a lot of this evidence before and a lot of research points to the fact that men are typically more violent, or at least the research seems to focus on that aspect these days.
All this research comes with a consequence I think. If you can prove that a man statistically more likely to abuse other people then what does that say about equal rights?
One example is in the agency I work for. Ever since the mentally challenged peoples exit from mental hospitals and assimilation into therapeutic homes in our neighborhood I have witnessed a very strange thing happen. Women are permitted to bathe male and female "patients" while men are only able to bathe male clients.
Who cares right?
But the question that bothers me is how did this inequality come to exist in the first place? Was the inequality created by statistical data? Or perhaps by the norms of our society?
But I am just playing the devil's advocate. If men are truly more likely to be abusive or violent, then so be it.
I just don't like when the truth is covered up. Inequalities such as the one I mentioned make a company unequal which means that it should be advertised as such.

It's tutoring in propositional/ predicate(incl. quantified and modal) symbolic formal logics. It's hard to explain unless you're familiar with formal logic. Each one breaks down language in a different way and uses inference rules to see if a statement follows from a given set of statements.

I think logic and decision making run parallel to each other.
I am no professional but I know the frontal cortex is associated with reasoning which could encompass logic and reason.
There is too much to be said. Nothing here is truth. More research needs to be done in my opinion and many extraneous variable need to be addressed. Hell, evolutionary psychologists might tell you that the brain has evolved over time.
I am not convinced.
I need to read the experiments that were done in order to find this data.

Quote:
1. Brain size: The male brain is typically about ten percent larger than the female brain. Although the extra mass does give males more processing power, this doesn’t make men more intelligent. Rather, science believes the reason for the increased brain mass is to accommodate the bigger body mass and muscle groups of the male (human).
2. Brain hemispheres: Many men are sharply left-brain dominant, while women tend to be more evenly balanced between left and right-brain processing. Women are therefore thought to be slightly more intuitive, and sometimes better communicators. Men are often less socially adept, and are more task-oriented thinkers than females.
3. Relationships: Women are purported to have better communication skills and emotional intelligence than men. Women tend to be group-oriented, and apt to seek solutions by talking through issues. Men can have trouble picking up on emotional cues unless they’re clearly verbalized – making for tricky communications between the sexes.
4. Mathematical skills: The inferior-parietal lobule, which controls numerical brain function, is larger in males than in females. On standardized tests, men often score higher on mathematical tests than women.
5. Stress: When faced with stressful situations, men usually employ ‘fight or flight’ tactics, while women use a ‘tend or befriend’ response that is rooted in their natural instincts for caring for their children and establishing strong group bonds.
6. Language: Women often excel at language-based tasks for two reasons: two brain areas that deal with language are larger in females, and females process language in both hemispheres while males favor a single brain half.
7. Emotions: Since women tend to have a larger deep limbic system then men, they’re more in touch with their feelings and are better at expressing their emotions. This makes women better at connecting with others, but unfortunately also more prone to different types of depression.
8. Spatial abilities: The parietal region is thicker in the female brain, making it harder for them to mentally rotate objects – an important spatial skill. Women often report difficulty with spatial tasks, both on tests and in real life. Want to test this theory with a loved one? Play HAPPYneuron’s visual-spatial game Points of View and test each others ability.
9. Susceptibility to brain function disorders: Men are more likely to be dyslexic or have other language disabilities, since they’re more often left-brain dominant. Males are also more prone to autism, ADHD and Tourette’s Syndrome, while women are more susceptible to mood disorders like anxiety and depression.

So its all based on anecdotal evidence? So if so and so was thought right and the next so and so followed him/her and so on? Sounds like "hmm sounds about right to me"

I actually disagree that emotions equates to lack of logic. For starters, emotions are not illogical things that happen for no reason. Emotions are simply cause and effect, which does not stray from A to B logical.
Additionally, there is further evidence to state that too abundantly high levels of testosterone lowers IQ. Kind of puts that whole "dumb jock" stereotype in perspective. Your typical male expert in academia is not going to exude particularly high testosterone, he is going to be about average or maybe even lower in testosterone.
I only have my personal anecdote running 200-300mg of Testosterone Enanthate (which is about 8x higher than the average male testosterone production), but it seems that even the way that I spoke got a whole lot "dumber" while I was cycling on test. I was always very articulate and politically cognizant, and I seemed to be losing quite a bit of my mind (literally) on test.

I'd say it depends on the person, it's kinda sexist saying men are more logical. I could find a woman with more logic than you, so it just depends on the person in my book.

I actually cannot recall having tutored any foreign females in logic. The only male I tutored, however, was a Chinese immigrant. I tutor immigrants in written composition constantly though. sometimes it's nearly impossible to tell what they are trying to say in a given sentence. "so, yeah.... this sentence doesn't have a verb in it..."

TakeItBreezy said: I'd say it depends on the person, it's kinda sexist saying men are more logical. I could find a woman with more logic than you, so it just depends on the person in my book.
obviously, dude. this thread is a joke; it is really sad to me that people took it seriously. a few people who probably don't have the opportunity to do so very often basically took the thread as an opportunity to try to flex their intellectual nuts, obviously i know this doesn't constitute any sort of a proof. I got an undergraduate degree in philosophy and there were plenty of females in the logic classes who did well; my graduate school is dominated by females whose trains of thoughts are obviously using the same kinds of logical inference rules that mine are.
