Yugang's friends at school
My friend Yugang asked once: "why 95%+ good looking girls always suck in studying stuff?" The expression sounds shocking but excuse his French...
I thought about it and I remembered that my computer sciences grad school barely had any women at all. Then, I thought about my math classes in high school and there were some beautiful girls, but the number of female students was about 6 out of 26.
It is hard for me to interpret that situation in American schools, but I thought about the Moroccan case, and I always believed that it was related to some unspoken social rules and expectations. Back on my time, girls in high school were thinking more about the future, the family, the society, etc. Guys were talking about their career plans, fleeding the country, making money, etc.
To go back to Yugang's comment, the best students I have seen had been hot chicks, both in primary school and high school as well as in university. So I am having hard time finding any patterns.

well, well,when I talked with you, I meant my graduate school of Engineering(maths, phisics, CS, and EE).
My theory, which is confirmed in practice, is that attractive girls are always tempted by boys in their environment to go out, to have fun > to enjoy their time.
So hard working girls are generaly not very cute.
Remember you theory about Moroccan beautiful girls???????????

I don't think that we can judge a woman that way. Eventhough beauty and smartness are two important criterias in a woman, but a woman is more meanigful than that. So, If a woman is cute, that's good. If a woman is smart that's even better. And if a woman is smart and beautiful that's perfect!!!
It seems that there is a certain probability that a person (man or woman) will be good-looking (according to someone's definition), and another probability that they will be smart. If both of those are less than 0.5, then, taking into account that the probabilities of the combinations smart/good-looking, smart/ugly, stupid/good-looking, stupid/ugly etc are the product of individual probabilities, it is quite expected that there are less good-looking and smart girls than not-so-good-looking and smart girls. And guys as well.
