I see that you entirely ignored her point, that babies are born with
essentially the same amount, regardles of sex (oh, check THIS out for
biology while you're at it - all fetuses begin life in the womb as FEMALE
till a damaged chromosome comes along and changes their growth to male.
That means you are the result of one damaged Y-chromosome).
You are also ignoring the very valid point that it isn't the number of brain
cells but how or whether they are USED. Ever hear the expression "use it or
lose it"? That is very true when it comes to the human brain. It's just
too bad you allowed too big of a share of YOUR brain cells to die from lack
of intellectual use.

Is that why you keep mis-using copyrighted statistics to further your narrow
agenda? I'm certain TIMSS and the National Center for Educational
Statistics won't be too happy to find out how you are abusing their
material, and without permission, to boot.

Did you even notice that your statement completely ignores the fact that it
is the percentage used, and how used, versus total number of brain cells,
that truly counts?

No teacher worth his or her salt would agree with your fallacy.

We certainly won't permit you to teach our children hatred and lies.

Yes they were. See what you're missing by being so racist?

Doesn't matter how MANY. It is the percentage used and how they are used.
This, as well as T9W's quoted statements, are not "feminazi" statements.
They are scientific fact - facts that refute your political agenda entirely.

And this is what we expect from someone who wasted more than his share of
the brain cells he was born with - and devoted a high percentage of the rest
to hatred and bigotry.
It's amusing how you resort to petty insults when science slams you in the
face, and proves how deluded you are.

There you go again, attempting to skew statistics to make yourself feel
better. When will you realize how hopeless your agenda really is? Get your
mind out of the 19th century and join the rest of us in the 21st.

More mis-use of copyrighted materials. The original owners will not be

She quoted plenty of solid, scientific evidence. The part of your brain
which would've been responsible for comprehending such things was withered
long ago by your blinding hatred. I still insist you'd better yourself by
seeking psychiatric therapy rather than constantly making yourself a target
of law enforcement.

Just can't handle quoting from the original source, can you. That's because
there is corroborating materials which end up refuting your hypotheses.

Looks more like you were the one hopelessly decieved, and forced to live a
life colored by rampant mental illness, John Knight. You truly can't handle
it when true, unbiased scientific evidence puts YOU in your place.
