Females, predominantly, have more attuned skills in:
- Verbal ability
- Emotional expression
- Compliance/Cooperation
- Multi-tasking
- Developmentally stronger (ie. fetal development is stronger)
Males, predominantly, have more attuned skills in:
- Visual Spatial ability
- Activity
- Fear/Pain Tolerance
Math: In middle school years, females are marginally less effective with math. As they age, they come to equality.
Aggression: Males are more physically violent, females are more socially violent.
Well, Onus wrote this, however thinking about this more this is sexist. To highlight this I will change it to black people and white people.
Black people, have more skills in
-Running and long distance running
-Sprinting and jumping
-They are stronger
-Lower IQ, they are stupider
-More violent
White people, have more skills in
-Science and mathematics
-Logic and reasoning
-They are masters not slaves
-Developing cultures and technology
Math: Black people only make up 1% of the mathematical research community in university.
Aggresion: Black people make up half the population in jail, however most mass murderers where white.
I think this highlights a point. You can't jugde people on basic sterotypes and the gender sterotype of woman is not good. It like the sterotype that woman chat more then men, this is generally true, however if you look at it in more detail their is lots of differences. Some people speak a little, however some people speak alot. In newscientist they pointed out that in the study on speaking they found females generally spoke more, however the three people who spoke the most where all male.
Again, even then how can you show that it is genetic or upbringing. Onus mention males have better visualization, however as shown if woman play action games then that gender difference is no longer their.
Race is abit more complicated, however you can say black people are stupid and give them IQ test and then match it with whites. However, how can you be sure this is genetic. Again, the IQ test has been used by racist to justify their belife that they our superior.
When someone like James Watson comes out and say black people are stupid and that we assume their equal but their not. This is basically giving a thumbs up to racist. Gender research and narrow sterotype is giving a thumbs up to sexist.
Their a long history of scientific racism. I hope it ends soon.
