An Observable Difference Between Brains Of Women And Men

Sandra Witelson is currently a professor at McMaster University which is located in Hamilton, Ontario. Witelson is a professor for the department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Neurosciences. Witelson had a love for science at a young age as her father was an intelligent man and encouraged Witelson’s interest in the human body. When first attending McGill University, Witelson had planned to major in mathematics, but changed her mind when she realized that psychology was a better fitting choice (Science.ca). Witelson has an outstanding background of education as she has received her B.Sc, M.Sc, and PhD from McGill University. Witelson’s research interests focus primarily around the brain and its functions based on whether it is a male or female brain. The main focus of Witelson’s research is around biological basis for cognition in male and female brains. Sandra Witelson’s research allows for a further understanding of different cognitive functions within the male and female brains (McMaster University).

I found the article Women’s Brains to be highly interesting and filled with many different opinions on an assumption. At first, I thought the article was going to be a man bashing the intelligence of a woman. I don’t believe that I was entirely wrong about men thinking little of women. As I read more of the article I believe he was just trying to prove the difference in the size of the brain between men and women. The scientist did have some scientific studies to back up his assumptions of women, even though I find them to be a bit bias. Broca’s experiment did involve some testing but not all the variables were the same. Within his autopsy study it proved to be that a man has a larger brain than woman, therefore, he believed it was impossible

Throughout history every civilization has looked to the stars and pondered their existence. While never truly reaching an understanding of their purpose on this lonely blue planet we call earth, they have constantly strived to further their understanding of the world and it’s mysteries. This thirst for knowledge has evolved with humans for a millennia and has changed as we have. One question that teased the mind of man for centuries was the quandary of sexes. Both a sociological and physical conundrum, the true station of a man or women in society has always been an important issue in any developing nation. Historically men have always been tasked with the more socially demanding tasks in their community while women are assigned the menial

Men differ from women by how they shop. Males are normally known to have more of a hunter mentality. The mens mentality defend the statement that "men are hunters and women are gatherers." This mentality can be seen by how men shop. Similar to a hunter (who goes out in the woods alone) when most males go shopping they tend

In a recent study done in August of 2013, scientists found that autism had a peculiar affect on the female brain. Researchers were looking to find differences between the two genders, something to support the already explored EMR theory, (also known as the “Extreme Male Brain Theory”), but they did not expect the possibility of the female autistic brain having a masculine resemblance. Scientists studied several men and women, with and without autism, which led to the discovery of the differences between the two genders.

It is convenient for someone to take barrow to do shopping. But in the situation of 2 or even more people, the barrow will distract the person from shopping who takes care of the barrow. He is restricted or set alone. He has to pay so much attention to the barrow that it may reduce the enthusiasm of shopping. However the shopping basket will not affect so much.

The insistence on sameness is a fundamental feature of ASD and is incorporated into diagnostic criteria. Clinical reports of individuals with ASD show that they react in an unusual way (they may feel stressed and anxious) to unpredictable change occurring in their environment. Such a crucial need for stability in individuals with ASD might arise from a dysfunction in the ability to predict events especially in an ever-changing world (Gomot and Wicker, 2012; Pellicano and Burr, 2012; Palmer et al., 2013; Lawson et al., 2014; Van de Cruys et al., 2014). Pathological restricted and repetitive behaviors and interests, rituals, and routines could represent attempts to regulate uncertainty by imposing sameness and order (Gomot and Wicker, 2012; Pellicano

Over the course of history, men and women have be faced with a communication barrier. The differing communication skills between men and women present challenges that can lead to foreseeable problems in relationships. These problems arise out of differing purposes, styles, traits, and emotions that accompany communication between the two sexes. Unless an understanding is reached, these barriers may never be broken down.

In Stockholm, Sweden, an article stating researchers discover gay brain activity closely matches that of heterosexuals of the same sex was published in The National Geographic entitled, “Gay Men, Straight Women Have Similar Brains”. Figure one shows “Covariations with the respective amygdala seed region in hetero- and homosexual subjects. The Sokoloff scale indicates T values. Clusters detected at T = 3.0 are superimposed on the standard MR image of the brain” Which simply means that homosexual men and straight women showed more neural connections across the two brain hemispheres than heterosexual men did.

Some of these gender roles and stereotypes have been created due to the differences in physique, thinking, personality, and behavior that is actually present between men and females. Physical differences are more visible to the eye due to the distinction between primary and secondary sex characteristics for each gender. Males have testes, deeper voices, a bigger body type, and more facial hair, where as women have a smaller body, higher voices, ovaries, and wider hips. (Rathus, 2010, p.448). Cognitive differences have to do with the brain and the way men and women

Second, there is the difference in shopping between men and women. Men take shopping easier than women. Some men will go in and come right out with the things they need. Men will go in the store with the things they have in mind, get them, and then leave the store. Women on the other hand take

When comparing two different ways of shopping most people do not even think about the difference, they do both and not even realize it. In today's society people shop while at work, after work and on the weekends, whenever time permits. Stop and think how can I get more time in the day for family or just myself? The best way to figure that out with all the recourses we have is to go into a store and spend time looking through racks and waiting in endless lines to just purchase something. I compared going into a store verses online shopping; to see which one will save you time and money.

Women tend to be more emotional and rational then men, whereas men are far less emotional and react on impulse. The different understanding of the ways that each sex communicates is still to be studied. Women tend to react more emotionally than men, resulting in submerging themselves, mind body and soul into making decisions. Meanwhile men, impulsively react to situations for the sake of having a reason to do so. Men see women as less competent to making decisions that involve a lot of thought, and this is due to women’s

No one would argue the fact that men and women are physically different. The physical differences are rather obvious and most of these can be seen and measured easily. Men, who are essentially built for physical confrontation and the use of force, usually have greater upper body strength, build muscle easily, have thicker skin, and mostly use the left side of their brain. Women on the other hand, have a higher percentage of body fat, and a wider pelvis. Women also have four times as many brain cells connecting the right and left side of their brain. This provides physical evidence that supports the observation that men rely easily and more heavily on their left brain to solve one problem one step at

As a ‘fundamental objective ' is about the convenience of online shopping. They are comments, online shopping is easy to find trade from different suppliers at home without having to go to the store. So, it will save you time, then shop in a store, in a retail store you have to go out to a store to another store. In addition to the convenience, customers can shop online without any time limit. You can search the World Wide Web online from Monday to Sunday, is open all year round 24 hours, anytime. It is also convenient for customers to share information through chats or discussion forums, to help others make better buying decisions. This is because the Internet a wide range, customers allow stores around the world, achieving great Internet sales, and comparison shop from the comfort of your home. Online shopping convenience to remove restrictive customers shopping in a store or purchase items they must be based on what is available locally. Online shopping at home than to spend time in places, gathered together more safely. This idea would also apply during peak seasons, such as the lunar New Year, Hari Raya Puasa, Deepavali and avoid large crowds during the Christmas holidays. In this way, it may lose the shopping for outdoor fun. In – store shopping could make social connections than that shopping independently
