There is very strong evidence for this, however it is controversial to talk about for whatever reason.

Evolutionarily, risk-taking also pays off more for men than women (mitochondrial DNA evidence shows that before we settled down into agriculture, very few men had offspring, but most women did), which is thought to be one reason young men engage in more risk-taking behavior.

There is no basis to say men are smarter than women, we have the same average IQ as well as performance on other assessments.
Truth is offensive now, everything I said was backed up by evolutionary biology, I usually don't say anything because most people are ruled by their emotions and anything that doesn't exactly align with their world view is shut down as either "snowflake" or "incel" depending on if they're leftists or rightists. It's an annoying time to be a non-emotional thinker.
