Surprising Differences Between the Male and Female Brain

this article.. lol..

-"But before men jump on these findings as proof of brain superiority.."

i knew then this was going to be a sexist read..

-"Dr. Jill Goldstein at Harvard Medical School found that compared to men, women have larger volume in both the frontal cortex (the inner CEO) and the limbic cortex, involved in emotional responses.

“This may explain why women tend to be less impulsive and more concerned with emotions than men are,” says Dr. Amen, who theorizes that a bigger and more active frontal cortex suggests that women are wired for leadership—and may actually be better bosses than men."

um.. more emotional means more impulsive.. and since when is being more emotional better for leadership?

-"Conventional wisdom would infer the team made up of people with the highest individual IQ scores (thus the highest total IQ) should emerge victorious. However, the collective IQ scores were based on how they completed the assigned tasks as a team. And the teams with the highest collective IQs were those with more women, Harvard Business Review reports."

conventional wisdom says that IQ tests don't mean shit

-"There’s quite a bit of scientific evidence that men have a keener sense of direction than women do, adds Dr. Amen. “Overall, men are better at getting from point A to point B, but are also less likely to realize it if they take the wrong turn. That’s why men are famously reluctant to ask for directions: They don’t realize they’re lost.”

that's totally contradictory

-"Women Live Longer, But On Average Men Are Happier" proceeds to concentrate mostly on the benefits of being a woman.

What this article is missing is:

Men's brains (average) 5% more x than women's brains (average). But the variation within each gender is 42%.

The second bit obviously makes a difference to anything you can assume about real life....

Only for those under the allusion of pc propaganda.

Thank you for posting something that references scientific research. I wish there was more stuff like this here.
