Articles on differences in men and women

[Moon]

I don't know, I do think men and women are different, and not just because of societal expectations, either. Biologically we're definitely different, not just because of our genitalia, but our hormones, muscle mass, fat distribution, etc. We're built for different things, and because of the hormones our brains are bathed in, even before birth, we aren't exactly the same there, either. What's wrong with that? I'll never understand why people get so upset over it. There's no solid dividing line, everyone is different, there are masculine women, and effeminate men, and people who lean more toward either one, but we're different, and that's OK.

I also think that, for the most part, we do communicate a bit differently, though everyone communicates differently, there is no template for communication. If you just pay attention and listen, without being selfish, you'll figure it out. There was nothing wrong with piratemama's articles, if you don't agree with them, don't read them, but they might help someone else.

I find that the older I have become, the more I agree with both articles. I used to think differently!

Well, there is the statistical difference, and there is the interpretation of that. I find things like that useful, at the same time people quickly make them into norms about how men and women should be.
