Preselected Participants. Staged for humor.

Here's the outtakes where some chicks actually get questions right and a guy thinks that Wilt Chamberlain was a British leader. Funny how those are considered "outtakes" because it doesn't fit with the theme they were pushing.

[–]taiboworksrational idealism > toxic egoism1 point2 points3 points 11 years ago* (3 children) | Copy Link

a far more scientific gender analysis of ap score differences (us history and european history) places men at about 15% higher score-wise.
https://research.collegeboard.org/sites/default/files/publications/2012/7/researchreport-1991-4-study-gender-performance-advanced-placement-history.pdf (sample size is fairly small @140 men and @140 women)

also, males have 10% larger brains, on average, which is found to correlate around .3 - .4 with intelligence.

"Head circumference was an excellent prediction of brain volume in 1.7 to 6 years old children (r = 0.93), but only an adequate predictor in 7 to 42 year olds."

[–]taiboworksrational idealism > toxic egoism2 points3 points4 points 11 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

i wasn't talking about head circumference, i was talking actual brain size. http://brain.oxfordjournals.org/content/brain/129/2/386.full.pdf

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I was adding that head size kind of seems to be as correlated with brain size as brain size with intelligence.

[–]17b29a0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (10 children) | Copy Link

Because it's a boring subject?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (9 children) | Copy Link

That would totally be TRP's explanation if men knew less.

[–]17b29a1 point2 points3 points 11 years ago (8 children) | Copy Link

I mean it's completely inane, worthless trivia, the only time you are ever going to use this knowledge is when some shithead on the street asks you about it to compile footage for his "lol people/girls/americans so dumb" video

[–]throwinoutex-Red Pill, now Purple Man[🍰] 1 point2 points3 points 11 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link

When did World War II start?

Name an Allied leader.

Name an Axis power.

Worthless trivia. Top kek.

[–]17b29a1 point2 points3 points 11 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Yes

[–]chasingstatueszion was part of the matrix1 point2 points3 points 11 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Do you also believe that this stuff like totally doesn't matter because it happened way before you were born anyway so like who cares?

[–]17b29a0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Ya

[–]Will_Im_Not 0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

I mean, it kinda is. WW2 isn't relevant. Where else besides a test would you use any of that knowledge?

[–]rumo_itaki 1 points1 points1 points 11 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

Uhm seriously speaking: all the time. Like.. pretty exactly 70 years ago Auschwitz was liberated. Politics and history are everyday topics at lunch, in the coffee break, at the rpg, etc.

[–]Will_Im_Not 0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Politics and history are everyday topics at lunch, in the coffee break, at the rpg, etc.

So are TV shows from the 90s but I'd still consider that trivia.

I think things like the Holocaust are important to understand for social reasons. But what practical purpose is there to know the model of a plane in WW2?

[–]rumo_itaki1 point 11 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

Oh yeah of course they are trivia, but that doesn't mean there is no practical use in knowing them.

Small talk makes people feel it is easier to communicate with you, and history is more intelligent than e.g. nail polish or whatever, meaning if you small talk about history you will leave an approachable and intelligent impression, someone you wouldn't mind presenting your company, someone who is well-versed about the world. I.e good small talk and good trivial knowledge might mean a lot when it's about promotions.

[–]rumo_itaki1 point 11 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

bc women are naturally more inclined towards STEM subjects and only males care about the soft social sciences... ;-)

What is this?

[–]throwinoutex-Red Pill, now Purple Man[🍰] -1 points0 points1 point 11 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Because of the patriarchy.

No more questions!

[–]AerobusThe Red Pill is Truth-1 points0 points1 point 11 years ago (17 children) | Copy Link

Lol. Funny. But of course feminists/bpers/sjws/tumblrinas view this as misogyny and sexism.

[–]Will_Im_Not 4 points5 points6 points 11 years ago (16 children) | Copy Link

I think selectively choosing responses to make men seem smart and women seem dumb is kinda sexist, yeah.

[–]AerobusThe Red Pill is Truth-1 points0 points1 point 11 years ago (15 children) | Copy Link

You guys take offense at everything that goes against your "women are equal" worldview.

It's a joke. It's meant to be a funny video.

[–]Will_Im_Not 2 points3 points4 points 11 years ago (14 children) | Copy Link

Jokes can be sexist. I love Bill Burr's stand-up but it's totally sexist.

[–]AerobusThe Red Pill is Truth-1 points0 points1 point 11 years ago (13 children) | Copy Link

And you'd rather complain about rather than accepting it and moving on?

You're absolutely correct. So what? Are you really going to become a SJW and try to fix the world?

[–]17b29a7 points8 points9 points 11 years ago (12 children) | Copy Link

Wow, that actually doesn't have anything to do with his comments at all!

[–]AerobusThe Red Pill is Truth-2 points-1 points0 points 11 years ago (11 children) | Copy Link

I'm trying to understand why he even brought it up. Yes it's sexist. RP isn't stupid. We see that.

So what? Are you really going to get angry at some youtube video?

[–]17b29a7 points8 points9 points 11 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

he's just pointing it out for you, calm down Aerobus

[–]AerobusThe Red Pill is Truth-1 points0 points1 point 11 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I am calm. Stop thinking I'm not. You guys are a combination of stupid, emotional, and rash. I've only been legitimately mad on PPD two times. I guarantee you this is not one of those times.

[–]Will_Im_Not 3 points4 points5 points 11 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link

Uh, you're the one that brought it up actually.

[–]AerobusThe Red Pill is Truth-1 points0 points1 point 11 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

I made a comment saying that your lot will interpret it as sexism, signifying my belief that you guys can't take a joke. Your comment reply to me showed me that I was correct.

This is why I keep sticking around on PPD. I always think to myself how BP will act, and I'm always proven right. If anything, this sub is more of an echo chamber than TRP.

[–]Will_Im_Not 2 points3 points4 points 11 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link

your lot will interpret it as sexism

You yourself interpreted it as sexism. "Yes it's sexist."

Your only argument seems to be "LOL ur so mad!"

[–]Aerobus1 point 11 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

I have no argument. I simply made a comment. My comment was that, in my belief, BPers would find it sexist and not like it. YOUR comment proved me to be correct.

And now you're going to tell me that you don't find it sexist, after saying it yourself???

You said:

I think selectively choosing responses to make men seem smart and women seem dumb is kinda sexist, yeah.

Keep hamstering. The fact of the matter is I'm not an antagonistic person; you folk simply choose to hate everything that comes out of my mouth. I did not pick a fight with anyone. I merely made a comment regarding my thoughts, you proved it to be true, and now you're upset at me, god knows why.

[–]Will_Im_Not1 point 11 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

you're going to tell me that you don't find it sexist

Nope

you folk simply choose to hate everything that comes out of my mouth

Nope

you're upset at me

Nope

Anything else you'd like to put in my mouth? ;)

[–]Aerobus1 point 11 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

You said:

In response to me saying:

Lol. Funny. But of course feminists/bpers/sjws/tumblrinas view this as misogyny and sexism.

When taken in context, you are saying that this video is sexist.

Therefore, you proved me correct (because I said BPers will find it sexist).

If after reading this, you are confused, I cannot help you.

Anything else you'd like to put in my mouth? ;)

Don't you dare accuse me of putting words in your mouth. I literally copy-pasted what you typed and submitted as a comment to reddit. That is not putting words in your mouth, that is quoting you.

[–]Will_Im_Not1 point 11 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

you are saying that this video is sexist

Yes, I am saying that. I said nope in response to "you're going to tell me that you don't find it sexist"

you proved me correct (because I said BPers will find it sexist).

I'm not a BPer.

I literally copy-pasted what you typed

Where did I say I was upset with you? Where did I say I hate everything that comes out of your mouth?

This is the dumbest conversation I've had all week.

[–]Aerobus1 point 11 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

You deliberately tried to anger me by accusing me of putting words in your mouth and typing a winky face to go along with it. Then you are led to believe that this is the dumbest conversation you've ever had.

I can agree with you there. You make no sense, contradict yourself, and your comments are incoherent.
