If you say it in the US—and I say it too—that male and female brains are different, you will be attacked by leftists with baseball bats. Maybe in your, secret, country, it is all right though. :)

In Japan 交 means "it is all right to cross the street here." I have to check to see what the other meanings are.

I don't know how to explain it without usually that Chinese word.

Male and female brains are definitely wired differently. And although both sexes have testosterone and estrogen, male testosterone levels make them want to see what is on the other side of the mountain and estrogen keeps women at home taking care of children. Of course, that is a wild exaggeration but that is what I do when I generalize. :)

In grad school, I had a female professor who kept saying: studies show that males talk more than females and tend to dominate conversations. I looked at the studies she was talking about and they had a tiny number of subjects and no control for socio-economic level. Anyway, years later I did a study with 200 first-year college students and got my controversial results. In some fields, feminism distorted the results that got published.

I put that book in my shopping cart.

I don't like people talking too much if I said "I don't want to talk about this".

Some people never respect me for that,and they love to claim they are "sociable",which is BS bombard.
