I found this to be a very interesting article although not surprising. I mean, c'mon - any woman can rant forever on how different we are from our male counterparts. We are controlled by hormones (men are too but VERY different ones in different ways). Because of this our bodies respond differently to everything we do, feel, intake, learn, etc. This study is inconclusive for why the differences amount to what they do but is pointing in the right direction that in all walks of life women cannot be put on the same playing field as men. And yes, I am still a feminist but fact of the matter is, our bodies are made differently and we cannot expect the same things from them. A great book to read of a lot of these differences (delves into the nitty-gritty of hormone function) is The Female Brain by Louann Brizendine.
