what a male and a female brain looks like
The image is a cartoon depicting what a male and a female brain looks like considering their sex differences and what they love. For the female brain, the most part is occupied by chocolate, shopping, mystery moods and behaviors, and musicals and sitcoms. The male brain is mainly occupied by sex, lame excuses, getting lost, and not admiring it and power tools. This image shows that the different behaviors of both male and female that distinguishes are wired in the brain.
The brain has been classified as either male or female for a long time, and this is as a result of different interests that exist for males and females, as shown by the cartoon image of what a male and female brain contains in terms of importance. However, a recent study by Daphna shows that the brain cannot be referred to as male or female. This is because everybody’s brain is unique when viewed as a whole, whether male or female (Daphna, pp 160).
This study by Daphna takes down binaries such as the one shown on the image that is gender-definitive for instance; boys mostly think about ball sports while girls mostly think about chocolate. However, these assumptions are not correct as some women prefer watching ball sports, and some men like shopping. The study tries to break s such gender norms, as there is no clear indicator of a mental disposition (Daphna, pp 162).
Although there are apparent differences between male and female genitals, it is still unknown how far the differences extend into human biology. However, if such a thing as a male and female brain existed, all men could have the same characteristics; for instance, all men could take a beer, and all women would love shopping.
