Women and men, generally speaking, have very differing types of intelligences. Decades upon decades of research has been done on this. There is nothing wrong with that. If you need me to start quoting and linking some peer reviewed journals, I'd be happy to - if you're interested.
Again, I grant the fact that some things are different. But you've met women pilots, are they simply needles in a hay stack? Or were a lot of them people who had a family member who flew, or just were interested. Many of those I know had experiences like that. It doesn't fit with you insistence that different genes explain that huge discrepancy. Again, all the same goes for people of color. Where is that genetic difference, if you please.
