Men and women have even starker differences in their minds, gender roles, socialization and emotional needs than they have physical differences

Eh... that's a pretty low bar. The physical differences are so small it's easy to imagine an alien race not being able to tell us apart male vs female. At least those certain kinds of fish and birds have crazy stuff like the female being 100x larger or the male having colorful feathers.

But how would such aliens then notice the "starker differences in their minds"?

You're welcome to wonder why or even if men and women are different.

Don't let me, or the 7.8 billionish people who seem to think so change your mind.

You might try reading other posters comments before coming up with some of the claptrap you post. I never said there were no differences between the genders. I agree that differences exist in the mental/psychological area that can't be adequately explained by societal factors. My disagreement is with your baldfaced claim, repeated again and again with no backing, that such differences are greater than the obvious physical differences.

You can try to explain them away with social factors if you prefer but biological reasons aren't exactly a secret. Hormonal and neurological factors aren't about to change just for you.

But if you're really ambitious enough to go against the grain as far as *that* is concerned then good luck 🍿

If you had read my post you just quoted you would have noticed that I never claimed there were no mental differences between the genders. You simply blather on with nothing more than "that's my opinion and everybody agrees with me" when it's obvious that billions of people do not. FYI, hormones and brain structure ARE physical factors.

You could say that neurological, hormonal and mental differences are all physical, yes, but that would really dunk on your intended point if you want to separate mental and physical differences, so i'd be careful about going there.

Your intended argument is uphill enough as it is.

I am not making an argument that mental differences do not exist. I'm still waiting for you to advance any reason that I should accept your baseless premise that such differences are much greater than the physical differences.

There we go, the adhoms suit you much better.

Glad we stopped you in time.

That said, how about we let FIDE , neurologists, educators, administers, spiritual leaders, politicians and the workforce decide? Oh wait.

So you believe that the Iranian ayatollahs, the pope, Kim Jong Un, cult leaders, the Chinese Communist Party, EEU bureaucrats, George Santos and the like tell us what is true and right? This makes as much sense as a lot of the rest of your posts here.

The current pope yes, but most of them would have offered a very different explanation for why men and women are even more different mentally than we are physically.

So what you really meant is that only those who agree with you are eligible to provide us with the "real facts".

Would you also ask me to provide facts to substantiate that the sky is blue or water wet?

Facts are facts, whether we observe them or not.

I just stepped outside and saw the sky was mostly shades of red and orange, with some purplish clouds. Soon the sky will be black. Not all "facts" are as clear-cut as they seem to simple minds.

Sometimes I find it amusing to watch a cat chase a laser pointer's light around, but the fun fades after a while.
