The Male and Female Brain...We do think differently.


While visiting a popular museum exhibit last summer, I noticed a poster stating that there have been scientific studies that attest to the fact that physiological differences in the male and female brain can account for some attributes which are viewed as being "more enhanced" in one gender than in the other. Here are their findings:
Women have more neuron cell bodies in their brains, allowing for more blood flow and greater efficiency at languages, memorizing details and counteracting the effects of old age (senility).

Men have longer neurons in their gray matter which allows for better communication, focusing on specific tasks, spacial orientation and a better performance in math/physics.

What's your opinion??? Any valid points or merely generalizations???
