At the elite college I attended, there were lots of male Chinese math professors, but I do not recall any female ones. If the right-tail effect is not present in the Chinese, for example, where are the great female Chinese mathematicians? Similarly, I can think of many more great Russian male mathematicians than female ones. Can you name a country where there are as many top-notch female mathematicians as male ones?
