Looks like someone need a lesson about standard deviations before making snarky comments.

To be fair, that was responding to a comment that was almost as dumb, although it weaseled out with that "IQ tests tell us" clause.

What does the number of women in science or business have to do with smartness?
Most businesses are pretty stupid, if you think about it - buy cheap sell high, or produce something people need.
As for science, it's mostly tedious research by poor PhD students with professors taking most of the credit. Occasionally there's a breakthrough, a cause for celebration (and hopefully real world application).
