Different brains?   https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/hope-relationships/201402/brain-differences-between-genders   How are male and female brains different?   https://stanmed.stanford.edu/2017spring/how-mens-and-womens-brains-are-different.html Women’s reading comprehension and writing ability consistently exceed that of men, on average. They out­perform men in tests of fine-motor coordination and perceptual speed. They’re more adept at retrieving information from long-term memory.   Men, on average, can more easily juggle items in working memory. They have superior visuospatial skills: They’re better at visualizing what happens when a complicated two- or three-dimensional shape is rotated in space, at correctly determining angles from the horizontal, at tracking moving objects and at aiming projectiles.   THERE ARE DEBATES AMONG SCIENTISTS THAT THERE IS NO BRAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MALE AND FEMALE _________ https://www.thecut.com/2017/04/heres-the-biggest-study-yet-on-sex-based-brain-differences.html
