Answer
No, boys are not dumber than girls, if your question relates to IQ. There is an anatomical difference between the brains of boys and girls, in which the brain bar (which forms the connection between our two hemispheres) is thinner in boys. This is believed to explain why women are more easily able to do several things at once (so this is not a myth!) as opposed to men.
