Researchers also discovered that men are even less productive when women are around. …

When the researcher and subject were both male, the average time worked was 3.6 minutes. When they were both female, productivity rose to four minutes.

But with a female researcher and a male subject, the time worked dropped to just 2.8 minutes.
