VICE | "It's Confirmed: Women are Higher Beings"

Perceptions that women are more moral than men lead to things like men getting harsher sentences for the same crimes. It’s also arguably counterproductive because it puts women on a pedestal. Ignorant people think it’s so funny and quirky to spread old stereotypes if they’re anti-male and sound progressive on the surface.

The beauty of these articles is that it is 100% acceptable, recommended even, to pinpoint a difference between male and female brains but ONLY if this benefits the female.
However, any study that doesn't show a clear superiority in the female brain (ex, men are better at physics) will be dismissed as a pure product of the evil patriarchy and the result of socialization.

Feminism is a brain disease. It destroys the center for logic and consistency.

You know what sucks the most about articles like these is that it's so obvious that it's made just so mediocre women can justify their false sense of superiority, yet everyone still falls for it.

This:

You know how women are generous goddesses who would do anything for their friends, family members, or strangers on the street? And how men are simply… not like that? New research from the University of Zurich appears to gives a reason for this: men's brains reward selfish behaviour, whereas women's brains reward generosity.

And this:

Now, before all the dudes reading this think they're off the hook and can't help acting in their own best interest, note that all this might have a cultural basis rather than a biological one. Soutschek said it was unlikely the differences between men's and women's brains existed inherently, and were more likely the result of ingrained social attitudes.

They do not go together AT ALL. What happened to the whole "Brain structures do not define an individual"? Or is it because it portrays women in a positive light?

Seriously, every time I bring it up, people tell me to calm down about it, that there's nothing wrong with being "factual". These aren't radfems BTW.

Eh.. Its VICE. Their articles are circuses. Just read it, laugh at their stupidity and go about your day.

'Higher' in the sense of 'stoned without drugs'? There is something to say for that... :)

Is there also a serious article that reports on this research? Or a way to access the study so we can evaluate it for ourselves?

This rage bait article cannot be taken seriously.

"The reward and learning systems in our brains work in close cooperation," he said. "Empirical studies show that girls are rewarded with praise for prosocial behavior, implying that their reward systems learn to expect a reward for helping behavior instead of selfish behavior.

"With this in mind, the gender differences that we observed in our studies could best be attributed to the different cultural expectations placed on men and women."

I don't like that concept "cultural expectations." Its idealist. The physical, economic, and socio-sexual conditions of a group of people dictate its attitudes and expectations, not the other way around. For example, societies with shortages of marriage aged men tend to be more liberal with sexuality. But they also tend to be more violent and less happy (Barber, Nigel. The Myth of Culture."

The "women are wonderful" paradox in a nutshell.

Higher beings until the lights go out, the water stops running, the shops are all barren, a foreign country invades, there's no more petrol at the pump and a jar lid's screwed on too tight.
