The always-amazing "Slate Star Codex" (Scott Alexander) on sex differences

Abstract

Sex differences in cognition and behavior are often described as being exaggerated, but careful analysis of the research reveals that some differences might be underappreciated. These differences may be due to biological factors and might lead to women being less represented in certain areas of work and study. Nevertheless, substantial overlap between men and women on these traits means sex cannot predict an individual’s capabilities. – AI-generated abstract.
