Male brains are larger than female brains because males are larger than females. Male torsos are bigger than female torsos, male legs are bigger than female legs, male hearts are bigger than female hearts, why not the brain too?
However, a larger brain does not necessarily grant greater intelligence. It is generally understood that one needs to take into account the ratio of brain to body mass. Basically this means that the larger the body, the more of the brain will be devoted to "non-intelligent" tasks such as heat regulation and physical coordination. Taking this into account, males and females have roughly the same brain to body mass, and hence, almost identical levels of intelligence.

Men have bigger brains then women because they usually are larger in size then women and have bigger heads. Not only are men often bigger, they are also taller so it would be backward if they had the same size brain as someone who is a lot smaller then them. An elephant probably has a bigger brain then both of us and it doesn't mean that it is smarter.

Just remember female was "created" after the male... and all the miss takes were fixed, because quality was better then quantity...
:)
also just because some brains maybe bigger it do not mean they are alive and in use...

they aren't. However, itsnot thesize of the brain that matters, its the amount of wrinkles on the brain. Apparently, the more wrinkled your brain is, the more intelligent you are.

you are sadly misinformed.......actually a woman's brain is superior due to the ease of the synaptic connection between the right and left hemisphere of the female brain , which does not exist in the male brain...
