[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, I think that we're all clear on the idea that boys and girls are different. But people don't read books with their genitals. [/quote]

Male and female brains are different, too, genius. That's why they're interested in different things, and want to read different books and see different movies.[/quote]

Which kind of a brain did E.B. White, the author of Charlotte's Web, have? How about J.K. Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series?[/quote]

Haw. Brilliant examples. I will tell you that, as a former teenage boy, JK Rowling has [i]no frigging idea[/i] how teenage boys think or act. It was so far off base it wasn't even funny. Harry's relationship with Cho Chang and especially Ginny reflected total ignorance of teenage male psychology.[/quote]

As a woman, I thought the same thing. It seemed awkward and forced. [/quote]

I don’t know...listening to oldest DS talk about the girls he’s liked...there’s a definite similarity. [/quote]

You're not really supporting the "Male and female brains are different, too, genius. That's why they're interested in different things, and want to read different books and see different movies." narrative here.[/quote]
