Il existe de grandes différences entre les hommes et les femmes dans la façon d'être surdoué et de vivre cet état. Les femmes à haut potentiel ne répondent pas de la même manière que les hommes aux contraintes d'une société dans laquelle les schémas de réussite sont encore imprégnés de sexisme. Le défi est double pour elles : dans un monde fondé sur l'image d'une femme au corps parfait et non d'une femme dotée d'un cerveau, il leur faut réussir à articuler leur féminité et leur intelligence et se faire accepter.

Jakes, Lomax shows how Black women are written into religious and cultural history as sites of sexual deviation.
