There are general differences between the brains of men and women with respect to the structure, operation, and behavioral dispositions. These scientific observations are based on statistical averages; there is no objective measure by which to determine if any individual brain belongs to a man or a woman.
Differences that may be mostly shaped by social/environmental factors.
Quote:Moreover, it is generally acknowledged that sex is a biological fact; whereas, gender is a social construction, i.e. a set of normative beliefs about sexuality. Beliefs are not hard-wired into the brain. And your beliefs are not supported by, and are actually contrary, to science.
What exactly is hard-wired into the brain (by your definition of "hard-wired"? Heard of neuroplasticity? That's science.

Except I have conclusively shown the competition isn't so unfair as to warrant her exclusion from women's volleyball. I was the last one standing there in that thread, having fully addressed basically every point there made against her inclusion. Where were you?
