> Statistically, more men have won Nobel prizes than women (by a large margin). Most Nobel laureates are Caucasian. Most are from the western hemisphere. Other than gender, it may be interpreted to mean that if a group which makes a small fraction of the total world population, they must be better/smarter.
Consider your magnitudes though.
For example, men win
0.961/0.5 = 1.9
times the Nobel Prizes you would expect based on representation alone, whereas Jews win
0.202/0.002 = 101
times the Nobel Prizes you would expect based on representation alone.
I am perpetually bamboozled how anyone can think anecdotes like this matter. If Harvard wanted too I am sure they could make half their undergraduate population disabled black lesbians. That does not prove that your average state school is horrible and discriminatory just because that is not their class composition.
Elite schools get more applicants of either gender than they have room for and those applicants are of very high quality with very high levels of interest in the subject matter.
