Und wieder ein Ergebnis, das zeigt, dass Frauen dümmer sind als Männer:

As was widely reported last month, a media study has found that women in a wide spectrum of Western countries are significantly less knowledgeable than men about current affairs and politics. In Canada, the gender disparity is particularly wide. Women, especially in Canada, are more ignorant of politics and current affairs than men, says UK research

In a finding sure to inflame the gender wars, research funded by the U.K. government suggests women around the world, and especially in Canada, are significantly more ignorant of current affairs and politics than men.

This gender gap is constant across countries as diverse as the U.S., Greece, Japan and Australia. It is as clear in Colombia, where most people scored very low on tests about current news events, as it is in Norway, where knowledge is generally high.

It is as evident in the U.K. and U.S., where gender equality is well established in the culture, as it is in Japan and South Korea, where it is not.

Frauen sind dümmer in westlichen Ländern, von den USA zu Japan.

Und eine Erklärung haben die verpudelten Otzenknechte auch schon parat. Es liegt nicht etwa daran, dass Frauen an sich bräsig sind. Sondern am Patriarchat. Frauen interessieren sich nicht für männliche Politiker und für Politik, die weit weg von Zuhause stattfindet:

University of London communications professor James Curran, the study’s lead author, theorizes that the gap may be due partially to “patriarchal bias” — with men being more dominant in public affairs, and women perhaps “too busy” to follow international news subjects.

These seem to me rather patronizing suppositions, implying that women are so gender-obsessed that they find international news interesting when Christiane Amanpour reports it, but not Anderson Cooper; or that busy men find time to watch the news, but it is beyond the organizational capacity of busy women.
