Actually both of them are found in both sexes

That further proves my point, at the basis were the same.

The difference comes when the majority of hormones being generated are either testosterone or estrogen.

A lot. Women is more sensitive,, more hardworking, more clever, more strategic than a man

That's not always true and it goes for both sexes even in general terms. For example: At some regions and classes I can say that indeed women as a group are more hardworking and then there are areas/classes where men have had to work harder. Some men can be highly sensitive and when it comes to egos, most of them can be. But then again hurt a woman's ego at the wrong time and place and it may cost you dearly.

You will end up making lists all day long and even then the boundaries blur.

I think it's a matter of perception.

- One could say that we're physically different, and run away with that

- One could say we're emotionally different (how we handle situations) , and run away with that

- One could say we're different in the way we intellectually operate, and run away with that

--------------------------------------------------------------------


- One could say we all display the same emotions (hate, love, anger, etc), and run away with that

- One could say our bodies operate the same (for the most part), and run away with that

- One could say both sexes have shown to display the others distinct emotional characteristics, and run away with that

- One could say that society and culture play a large part in our differences, and run away with that



It depends if you're willing to focus on the differences or similarities. It depends if the opposing side is adamant or ambivalent of their opinion. It doesn't really do any good to argue if one side is focusing only on the differences, and the other only on the similarities. You won't find common ground that way. They're both similar and dissimilar, this much is a fact.

It's up to you to decide whether that makes them different, as pointed out, even males vary from another. But obviously, you would say we're different from a gorilla, so it's totally up to you to decide where you draw the line. Is it majority rules (differences being greater than all the equivalents, and vice versa), or how much different one feature is? Depends on the person I guess.



As for my opinion, I think we're the same. :D

Now everyone gives each other a rep for making a funny. I saw one user ask one of his friends for a rep one time.

Whoa..! you caught me.. :( I'm thinking a while ago if I should just edit my answer or erase but I'll choose the latter part & erase it so I won't need to make an explanation hehe :O

It wasn't meant to be a shot even in a remote sense! You are neither that new nor all the new comers got their rep from fishy methods only. Don't read more into random comments than necessary. Manga debaters already do it too much. I am escaping from that to GD.

One of the best things I have ever read on NB, you sir are one of the intelligent people I have seen on NB these days..:p
One of the 'most beautiful person', I met in my life told me once that, Women and Men are like night and day.
>Women are warm and sensitive like night and men are rough and tough like days.
>They are inseparable.
>When they meet the new life starts.
>You can't run the life/world with only one of them and without other.

Simply said men and women are not that different . we are just people who have different perspectives of life and different needs .

Eh.. don't make it more complicated than necessary. That simply sounds like you are saying that mother nature was replaced with masculine heavenly gods. Matriarchal societies turning into patriarchal and all that jazz... men get confused you know. ;p

And I don't find it much relevant in here - not yet. No idea how the posts will go later on.
Yeah that what the documentary was sort of about, it was actually very interesting and enlightening, lol.
And yeah I may have posted this too soon lol.
