Show Notes
Today's topic is gender differences. We start the show about a news event that occured with an academic where he stepped into some trouble for discussing gender differences. Dr. Lisle discusses the biological difference between men and women. For example, men can become more explosively angry than women due to a particular hormone that rises quickly in males. On the other hand, women can still be just as competitive as males, but they are slicker and friendlier.
How did these differences evolve? Why did certain traits evolve in the different genders? How are men and women different? How does this translate into modern society?
