Specifikacia Gender Mosaic
With profound implications for our most foundational assumptions about gender, Gender Mosaic explains why there is no such thing as a male or female brain.For generations, we've been taught that the brains of females and males differ in profound and important ways. According to this story, the female brain has a large communication center and a large emotion center, and is hard-wired for empathy. The male brain, on the other hand, has a large sex center and a large aggression center, and is hard-wired for building systems. This story seems to provide us with a neat biological explanation for much of what we encounter in day-to-day life. It explains why women are more sensitive and emotional, whereas men are more aggressive and sexual; why most teachers are women, and most engineers, men. But is it actually true?According to neuroscientist Daphna Joel, it's not.
