They couldn’t find any single pattern that distinguishes between a male brain and a female brain, and say only a very small percentage of people fall under clear all-male or all female brain patterns

Opinions thoughts?

Females have more senstivity to pain while males have it less painful, while males have less pain tolerance while females have extremely high pain tolerance capacity.

In a survey, the percentage of suicides are dominated by men which speaks some facts about the matter

Isn't that a contrary statement in one part they're saying there's no different but other saying there's a difference in pattern of male and female brains

As for my thoughts i would assume largely male and female brains would be the same only difference I would assume would be hormonal

Male brains utilize nearly seven times more gray matter for activity while female brains utilize nearly ten times more white matter. What does this mean?

Gray matter areas of the brain are localized. They are information- and action-processing centers in specific splotches in a specific area of the brain. This can translate to a kind of tunnel vision when they are doing something. Once they are deeply engaged in a task or game, they may not demonstrate much sensitivity to other people or their surroundings.

White matter is the networking grid that connects the brain’s gray matter and other processing centers with one another. This profound brain-processing difference is probably one reason you may have noticed that girls tend to more quickly transition between tasks than boys do. The gray-white matter difference may explain why, in adulthood, females are great multi-taskers, while men excel in highly task-focused projects.




More studies on the matter:

*** differences in personality/cognition:
Lynn (1996):
Lippa (2008):
Lippa (2010):
Weisberg (2011):
Del Giudice (2012):

Larger/large and stable *** differences in more gender-neutral countries: (These findings run precisely contrary to social constructionist theory: it's been tested, and it's wrong).

Katz-Gerrog (2000):
Costa (2001):
Schmitt (2008):
Schmitt (2016):

Differences in men and women's interest/priorities:
Lippa (1998):
Rong Su (2009):
Lippa (2010):
See also Geary (2017) blog:

Life paths of mathematically gifted females and males:
Lubinski (2014):

*** differences in academic achievement unrelated to political, economic, or social equality:
Stoet (2015):

Big Five trait agreeableness and (lower) income (including for men):
Spurk (2010):
Judge (2012):


Edit: I don't know why NB keeps sensoring the url's. You can find the original list in the description of this video from Jordan Peterson, a professor of psychology at Toronto Uni. (used to teach at Harvard):

Um there are bigger differences in some animals.In humans I know that the INAH 2 and 3 nuclei and Onuf's nucleus are quite sexually dimorphic.

Yeah brains are probably the same.

But the thought processes are completely different

Men and women are completely different concerning thought process.
