[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are plenty of documented neurological differences between male and female brains. Spatial awareness in particular can be measured as early as 3 weeks old. That said, there are always outliers and people should be treated as individuals. But it doesn’t make sense to deny that due to hormonal differences and evolution (and a whole host of other factors) there are measurable differences in the way male and female brains function on the average. These differences account for the higher prevalence of ASD and schizophrenia in males, along with a whole host of other differences. We’re just like many other mammals with observable differences in the sexes.

That doesn’t mean that all the #boymom and #girlmom stuff isn’t cringey. It is.

Yes, there are structural differences in DEVELOPED brains that are formed while kids are young.  If you condition their brains in a gender bias misogynistic world you get differences along gender lines.  Same if you do that along race lines or any other way... Duh!

Sure there are PHYSICAL and HORMONAL differences after puberty after which many of the structure in the brains have already formed.  I can teach it to you but unfortunately I cannot understand it for you.

But there are physical differences from birth, not just at puberty. Boys are larger and heavier even pre puberty, for example. I disagree that behavioral differences are purely socialized. Not buying that. NP[/quote]

Sorry, once you discount for the differences in nutritional intake when the moms find out the gender, your argument falls apart.  So nope! Statistics and reality are not in your favor. Look at the stats before ultrasound. 
 Lemme guess you make up your own reality here.[/quote]
