I constantly think about sex.
And I couldn’t care what gender someone’s brain is, I’d still shag it, fry it and eat it.

Not particularly in that order either.

As far as I have noticed, most men here apparently insist that the brain must be naturally very gendered, with major intrinsic differences between 'male brains' and 'female brains', which must affect their performances in about every field (including chess).



I've not insisted anything like this. I would suggest however there are far more differences between the brains of males and females than have been discovered.

As a man, I neither insist that or believe that.

You sound a little sexist in your assertion, to be honest with you.

As a matter of note, I never thumbed down any of your posts.

@Duchess64

Mchill seems ignorant of the continuing trend in scientific research or thought.
In fact, (male) scientists used to believe that there were more gendered differences in brains.


Duchess, I'm aware throwing insults at me gives you emotional gratification, but the best scientific minds on the planet agree that their understanding of the human brain is still in its infancy, and all the insults in the world won't change this. If it will make you feel better though, I'll have the room you're in filled with breakable objects, so you can take out your frustrations on those.

Inferior? No.

Different? Yes.

But not as different as some sexists believe.

Was your interest in military aviation history just an extension of your field of history or did you have an interest in military aviation history first and that generated a larger interest in history in general?

In the gender of brain issue, a man and a women getting sexually interested in each other, but their brains are essentially the same, where does the sexual interest come from?
