In the past ten years, there have been many researches concerning what makes the sexes different. Remarkably, these doctors, scientists, psychologists, and sociologists are not working together but still have arrived at a very similar conclusion.

Until a few years ago, the difference between the sexes has always been attributed to social conditioning. This is the expectations of parents whose own attitudes reflect the expectations of society. Very little attention was given to the biological view that a person may be what he or she is because of the way he or she was made or what kind of hormone he or she may possess.

Hormones make people behave in specific stereotypical ways. They may provide the partial answer in the difference of the sexes but the answer lies in a more important part of our body – the brain. The brain is one of the most vital organs of our body. It weighs three pounds and is made up of neutral tissue. The brain is divided into two parts or sides and is also known as the hemispheres. The brain consists of the left hemisphere and the right hemisphere. These two hemispheres are joined by a bundle of nerves called the corpus callosum.

But there will come time when the brain has already been organized. No amount of additional male hormones can change the brains organization.

Havelock Ellis’s book, Man and Woman (1894), cited several differences. Women’s superiority over men in memory, cunning, dissimulation, compassion, patience, and tidiness. He also stated that a woman genius seemed to need the close support of a man, citing Madame Curie, the wife of a distinguished scientist and Mrs. Browning, a poet whose best poems were made after she met Mr. Browning, as examples.

In the 1950’s, Dr. D. Wechsler, an American scientist who developed the IQ test most commonly used today, found out that 30 tests ‘discriminated’ in favor of one or the other sex. He tried to alter this discovery by cutting out some of the discriminating tests and changing them to female – slanted or male – slanted tests. When they still could not produce equal results, he stated: " Our findings do confirm … that men not only behave but ‘think’ differently from women."

With most of the sex differences mentioned, it is evident that women are more superior to men in some of their characteristics. Women are simply better equipped to notice things to which men are comparatively blind and deaf.

widely believed that men and women act differently from each other because of gender differences¹, studies have proven that it is actually the brain that plays a major part in these attitude differences.

A female rat was injected with male hormones acted aggressively, an innate male behavior, and even tried to mount other females. This only proves the point that whatever happens with the brain and whatever hormones are present in it really do affect our sexuality.
