  Actually no. No matter what PC advocates want to claim, there are
differences (in average) between the male and female way of thinking.

  Males are (again, in average) risk-takers while females aren't. Males
present much more often extreme behavior than females. For example the
majority of scientifical geniuses are male, as well as the majority of
serial killers. Males are usually the ones who take big risks eg. in
business, while females usually don't. (And no, individual counter-examples
do not nullify the average.)

  It has nothing to do with stupidity.
