An important thing to remember re: IQ, stem fields and gender.

Everyone knows high IQ is related to Stem fields. However, the lack of females is not just due to culture. The majority of high IQ people are men. The AVERAGE is about the same. But men trend more to the extremes...Very high IQ and Very low IQ while women trend toward the middle.
There are way more male geniuses than female.

And more men (your "Very low IQ" folks, so we're in agreement) suffer from some sort of cognitive disability. Just taking "Fragile X" syndrome as one form of inherited issue, it is about 1 in 2500 males and 1 in 8000 females.
