Andante, you sensitive flower, it's not a 'vitriolic attack' to ask someone to source the evidence behind a controversial truth-claim. It's the meat and drink of rational debate. Stop being such a drama queen.

I'm having trouble with your sentence construction, but are you now saying there's been
no scientific investigation into alleged male-female brain difference leading to composing and conducting incompetence in women? If so, that explains why you can't produce any evidence: it doesn't exist.
Moving swiftly on.... one area where women have moved into the conducting field is in the role of concertmaster - directing from the violin. An exponent is Rachel Podger, interviewed
here. I've heard Simon Standage, Jaap Schroder and Sigiswald Kuijken fulfill the same role and La Podger does it just as well as them, if not better.
