He claims the 'glass ceiling' phenomenon is probably due to inferior intelligence, rather than discrimination or lack of opportunity.

He's not gonna live much longer making statements like that. If the study was done within a certain region, it's probably accurate. But that doesn't take into account any of the other skills needed to deal with life. Were the subjects tested on aptitude during a severly stressful situation, what about tact or emotional understanding? And who's to say another region in the world wouldn't find reverse results?

In my mind, I wouldn't worry about who can perform better on a piece of paper, but who has the ability to recognize situations and is more prepared to deal with them effectively.
