Is there something about the male gender that makes one a better investment banker? If not, how do you explain why that is in the first place?

There's abundant evidence that women prefer to work fewer hours than men and working insane hours is (for better or worse) a requirement of investment banking.

Whether the preference for fewer hours is innate or learned I don't know.

Women flat out don't want to do it. Some do, but not many.
I flat out don't believe that.
