... if a test measures education instead of ability, according to
aforementioned prime axiom the test /is/ broken. Q.E.D.

I was thinking about things like anatomy (which is /far/ from
"superficial" as in "looks different superficially but does the same"),
hormones, different(!) intelligence (more focused on "social
intelligence" in women for instance), possibly related to different
anatomy of the brain (more links between brain hemispheres in women),
better ability of women to pay attention to multiple things at once,
better ability of men to focus attention on a single thing - stuff like
that.
(Hey' we're talking about a difference of a whole chromosome, after all.)
