[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work with very young children and in the past I spent many years working in the criminal justice system.

OF COURSE the brains of males and females are very different. Males are far more prone to violent behavior and impulsivity - that is evident in the behavior of kindergartners, teenagers, young adults and older adults.

Acknowledging difference doesn't undermine women - women are capable of equal if not greater intellectual achievement and are less inhibited by overactive sex drive and propensity for aggression. Yes, some women are aggressive - but in far few numbers than men.

Testosterone is not a good thing in large quantity.[/quote]

Testerone made our world - explorers, adventurers, innovators.  Yes, women are intelligent but cautious.  Men are impulsive and thrill seeking - and that's a good thing.[/quote]

There are plenty of adventurous women and always have been - but it is only recently that women have been unchained from their reproductive capacity and from being coerced and controlled by men.

Try again.[/quote]

Some women were “allowed” to explore, like Amelia Earhart.  There was also Marie Curie, but her accomplishments were mostly given to a man until after she died. . .

To PP - you know the history books were written within our sexist (and racist) culture, right?[/quote]

So, throughout time women have always been held back, thwarted, oppressed, etc. Why do you think that is? Is it random chance?[/quote]

It's because testosterone-driven violence has oppressed women for thousands of years - and continues to do so. Men worry women will laugh at them, women worry about the potential every man has to snap and murder them.[/quote]

No. Women (without extreme anxiety) don’t worry about that.  :roll:
