A rant on gender stereotypes

[John V]

I disagree. While we are sexually dimorphic, most men are bigger and stronger than most women and most women can tolerate pain better than most men, I don't think cognitively there's much difference. The data on that isn't clear. Most of the women I've met, and most of the studies I've read, point to conditioning. Women are conditioned to be a certain way, and men another. Those stereotypes largely are societal, and conditioned into us.

I've seen studies that acknowledge that both nature and nurture play a role.

Some differences between the sexes are found across cultures. These are likely biological. Some differences do not hold up across all cultures. THese are likely conditioned.

They exist because men with tiny dicks wrote bibles and korans to keep women in their place.

Leave it to Minnie to come into a thread on stereotypes by bringing up stereotypes based on penis size.
