In my experience, most men who claim that females have higher intelligence
than males do that to make females feel he is a nice guy, a prerequisite
for mating.
Personally, I notice no greater difference in intelligence between the
human sexes. There exists a number of behavioural differences, mainly due
to social programming, but also from hormonal differences, and, finally,
from DNA differences. The social programming makes the greatest difference.
