FFXIAH Linkshell Ni
To ignore the differences between men and women for the sake of some utopian society is foolish.
no one said there weren't any differences in the genders.
this statement: "The female mind often tries to read between the lines way too much rather than what is actually going on." screams of stupidity. how you read those articles & drew that conclusion, sir, baffles me.

Womens and mens brains work differently, yes.
But not how you are summing it up. For example: women tend to be more risk adverse than men (also mentioned in that article). It is why many venture capital firms are trying to have duo CEO's of both male and female, so they balance each other in decision making skills. The articles didn't say women were emotional. Quote: “This may explain why women tend to be less impulsive and more concerned with emotions than men are,” says Dr. Amen, who theorizes that a bigger and more active frontal cortex suggests that women are wired for leadership—and may actually be better bosses than men. Not sure exactly how less impulsive means more concerned with emotions, but I feel like I'm missing part of the conversation.

Where does biology end and cultural conditioning begin?

Touchy subject I guess, lol. Easier to show people how they all follow Marxism instead.
I think all the regulars of Ni left when the conversation got a bit too heavy.

Life is a contradiction.
I need to write a book instead and do book tours.
Maybe they left because they are off work.. Hmm.
Yeah from what I gather thus far it dies down after 5pm and weekends. Working class, or the proletarian, as they say.

Quote: Scientists now know that sex hormones begin to exert their influence during development of the fetus. A recent study by Israeli researchers that examined male and female brains found distinct differences in the developing fetus at just 26 weeks of pregnancy. The disparities could be seen when using an ultrasound scanner. The corpus callosum -- the bridge of nerve tissue that connects the right and left sides of the brain -- had a thicker measurement in female fetuses than in male fetuses. Observations of adult brains show that this area may remain stronger in females. "Females seem to have language functioning in both sides of the brain," says Martha Bridge Denckla, PhD, a research scientist at Kennedy Krieger Institute. Consider these recent findings. Researchers, using brain imaging technology that captures blood flow to "working" parts of the brain, analyzed how men and women process language. All subjects listened to a novel. When males listened, only the left hemisphere of their brains was activated. The brains of female subjects, however, showed activity on both the left and right hemispheres. This activity across both hemispheres of the brain may result in the strong language skills typically displayed by females. "If there's more area dedicated to a set of skills, it follows that the skills will be more refined," says David Geary, PhD, professor of psychological sciences at the University of Missouri. Go figure, I'm a polyglot, too. Shiva.Onorgul said: » Leviathan.Chaosx said: » It's proven science. Nothing to do with society.

Go figure, I'm a polyglot, too. But I tend to use my emotions more when interacting with people in person more than the average male, but little to none by myself. It's far from universal, as they're are many exceptions to virtually anything. Existence would not exist if everything was universal. It would all be nothing. But what be nothing if there wasn't something to compare it too, etc. Gotcha.
Language is but a tool of communication. I believe anyone can learn any language given their right set of variables. For instance, myself, I can't study a foreign language and learn it. Failed miserably at French and Spanish in high school. Yet when I was around 9-10 years old I picked up German in Germany with no problems whatsoever. Russian was very easy living and working in Russia. Chinese was a bit awkward, as I only picked up on the structure, but it wasn't a necessary thing for the short time I was there so I didn't put any importance on it too much. I got to be among it to learn it and need to learn in order to learn it I guess is my way, lol. |
