A range of differences, some large, favoring females are found in performance on verbal tasks. Males also show higher levels of dyslexia and other reading disabilities. The incidence of stuttering is also higher among males.
Several studies have shown women are better at certain types of memory.
In the United States, women tend to outnumber men at colleges and universities
Women outnumber men in tenured faculty positions in humanities fields.

Most studies show no significant difference in the average IQ for men and women. However, on average men perform better on tests of spatial and mathematical ability, while women perform better on tests of verbal ability and memory. Also, men's IQ has greater variance, that is, there are more men than women in the very high and very low IQ groups, with women's scores more concentrated around the average.
