Brain and gender
« on: June 10, 2011, 07:30:19 pm »
I found this site back in high school:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/sex/

I thought I'd bring it up since gender has been heavily discussed the past few days. It's an interesting test and defines gender in terms of brain functionality.

It also reveals why women might struggle with math. Math is often taught in a geometric way, but women don't generally excel at geometric tasks (but they excel in other tasks!). Hence, I believe women are merely taught math the wrong way ... but that's a different discussion altogether!

I scored 100% Male in High School, but now I score 50% Male ... I think it's ideal to be in the middle somewhere since both male and female have advantages.

It means you're in between ... I would consider that a good thing as you have advantages of both male and female brains.

I scored at 50 on the male side.  I got 12/12 on the 3D shapes, but failed super miserably on the words.  Rofl!  Oh well.

Aforetime crowned by lilac and lily,
Lay now forevermore slender;
And all winds that liven
Silhouette a lone existence;
A leafless oak grasping at eternity.

0/0 for me. Not a huge surprise.
