It may be a joke, and I'm not theist so I don't care about it. But it seemed like you were attacking me as having religious believes for the differences between men and women.

And my point is not who cook more or vanity (although it probably is quite gender oriented even if we have men that like make up). I'm talking like woman inclining more to emotional and man to rational. Man taking more risks and woman choosing safely. Man choosing reprodution and woman protection and prosperity, etc... You could say all of them are social constructions and the brain have no difference and no justification for those things, but if they showed spontaneously it may have a reason for it. And that may derive from the inerent differences between genders. To refute gender differences in the name of equality grant no one any progress whatsoever.

Men think more with the left side of the pre-frontal cortex which controls rational/calculated thought process. Women have a more active amygdala which controls the emotional sensors. But nowhere have I refuted differences in the name of equality. Instead I have stated that no psychological behavior is bound by sex. To evaluate someone on gender is to ignore so many progressive avenues. Women on average may be better at one thing but that does not mean an individual woman will be better that the next individual man. I'm arguing for the process of evaluation, on all fronts, not just gender.
