I stated that there appear to be differences in the ways that men and
women think. Some of these differences are probably due to the initial
training of children in most of the cultures of the world. In addition to
physical differences, think about other  known major differences between
men and women. I'm sure that you are aware of  the hormones that exist in
different quantities and erupt at different times. Don't these have
effects on thinking as well as physical processes?

I'm reminded of  the musical show "My Fair Lady" when Richard Burton is
tormented by the way that women think and comes out with the song, "Why
can't a woman act like a man ?"
