Some gender differences are biological. Are men and women different in exactly the same ways as they were 5000 years ago? Hard to say, huh? Because after all we're discussing this under the article heading of girls being biologically hardwired for ''princess culture". Sheesh.

I forget that sometimes (although you can smoke opium)

Nope, not what the OP was talking about. Thanks for capitalizing Natural Selection and quoting the definition to me though but I remember being in grade school. And for completely ignoring the content of my last post, it seems. Not sure why you even brought it up as it doesn't refute what I said in any case. It's…

Where's the love for heroin guys? It has been the driver of lots of great works of art and literature

GAAHHH I knew this would happen. I said "over time" to cover the generations it would require for these changes to take place, suggesting that social evolution could affect changes over x number of millenia. But you took your first impression and ran with it, good job.

Cuz my acting's really shitty."

There's also really no way to conduct a fully controlled study on whether boys and girls prefer to play with gender coded toys or not, because by the time they are old enough to play with toys in a study, they have already been imprinted with the codes of the culture in regard to gender

I like the dress (although the sleeves seem clunky) & love the shoes. Wish the stripes didn't give me a headache.

Not to mention — and correct me if I'm wrong — but doesn't environment alter biology over time?

The "more intimacy" thing is kinda hard to represent visually - which means you would have to express it via dialogue, which would make it more costly. I kinda agree with something my brother said years ago — trashy daytime soaps could be watchable if they featured graphic sex. Speaking purely for myself, I'd go…

Fair enough, but what you've said here seems to assume that men won't purchase porn if it's something that women like. I'm curious about what people imagine 'women's porn' would be like that would alienate male consumers. Would porn that passed muster for female consumption be that different? I've seen female-made…

Well, ok. What are we supposed to do with this information? How to apply it in our lives? When I was a kid, I hated princess shit. Does it make me a freak? What actual purpose does it serve when Science (as if this heading represents everyone in every scientific discipline sharing the consensus that children are…

Couldn't you still make money in a minority market, especially since there is likely less competition? I'm guessing porn is almost always win-win because SOMEone will watch it. I think we would all benefit from higher quality porn, unless I'm totally missing something and porn made for women would turn guys off.

that conscious thought process regarding touching->making out->sexing is more common in women, as an understandable and logical response to issues of consent and assault

Also, for anyone interested in conducting a study, pot makes me a genius at Sudoku.

>>Xanax is the only reason I can deal with being around people.

Very very very good points, every word. I'm gonna throw in that not all female empowerment is necessarily feminist. Lots of women make certain choices because they can benefit from sexist double standards (anti-feminists mistake this for feminism which doesn't help either). Of course sexism can be a nice crutch,…

Catholics are like a different species to me. I had a friend when I was a kid who had a picture of the Pope on her wall. As a halfhearted Methodist, I was jealous. I wonder if the all-pants choice at the school you mention is about neutering the girls, or about practicality? If I must cover up my shameful parts, I…

My mind is reeling. ''sexed up" as in pimped up? Or you got sexy in it? Or you fornicated it?
