Supposing that this research is valid, it wouldn't be offensive to women and neither would Dave's post. It would just be more fodder for the male inferiority hypothesis.
I should note that some of my best friends are male. Even my mother's two children are male.

I can't foresee many women finding this research offensive.....I'm pretty sure they would be well acquainted with the phenomenon of men becoming idiots when a woman walks in the room (=

Think about it from their perspective: it would just seem like men are always idiots...
