I need to know some of the mental differences between men and women. For example, why women feel more than men, why men hate chick flicks, why women take things more personally.

***So many people will HATE this answer… We were made for our individual roles. We were made to BALANCE each other. We are perfect together, when we respect and listen to each other. When a man takes the lead (that doesn’t mean dominant, bully, it just means ‘he’ drives the bus with an intelligent assistant)life is usually peaceful.
***When a woman provides the man with her feminine input (not screaming, nagging, insulting)then he is a wise man for listening to her. A man cannot be an excellent leader if he ignores the needs of his valuable partner. A woman cannot feel cherished if her man is too weak to care for her and protect her. She cannot love herself when she is verbally vicious to her man. When ‘she’ takes the lead and defends her ma against outward dangers – ‘nobody’ is happy. He has to do it. Women were put on this planet to be men’s sensitive helpers, not their overworked, unappreciated slaves.
****If men take the lead in showing, compassion, consideration and respect, those different likes and dislikes become valuable lessons for each gender. A woman will follow such a man’s lead, and she will respect his strength. We find each other exciting, and satisfying when we appreciate and respect the differences. We were made to ‘fit.’

This question keeps popping up over and over again. The trouble is that when people try to do studies they do them on men and women or girls and boys who are so far past the brain-development years that any differences between the genders are well established, well documented and assumed to be the way it always will be and has to be.

In my own life, and then when it comes to my children, I have seen that if a child is raised as a human first (ideally, one who likes being whatever gender he/she is) and then the child's gender becomes more of a difference once adolescence sets in; the end result is that there may not be all that many differences intellectually between the genders. There is a set of characteristics that would make up the person who has reached his human potential intellectually and emotionally, and those characteristics are the same for both genders.

I have read a certain popular book that, one the one hand, may address the issues of differences between men and women as they tend to often be today; but I, myself, have also seen that certain books do not provide accurate information because I know the characteristics of many men and many women in my own life; and they aren't what some books say men and women usually are. They are also not rare enough to just write them off as exceptions.

Many "experts" who have opinions about gender differences have a certain percentage of things that are probably right, but then they bring the conclusions off in some direction that isn't quite accurate. Don't believe everything you read. At least no until someone has more to back up conclusions that any studies done on people "as they are" rather than on the potential of what people could have been had they been raised differently.

You might be surprised how many people who are packaged in dainty little frames have all the traits of a man inside and at how many big, bruising, lunks have all the traits of what someone would see as a woman's inside.

Differences between men and women? Physical, yes. Emotional, probably; although I see no real evidence of it in the people in my life. Intellectual? Not necessarily any differences any more than there are differences between any other two groups.

For the most part, I really suspect that any differences that show up these days in women and men who are already grown or at least already grown past being two years old are heavily the result of socialization. The weaknesses often seen in many women (not all) are the result of the failures of parents and schools to adequately nurture certain types of skills and abilities. The weaknesses often seen in many men (not all) are often the failures of parents and schools not nurturing a different set of skills and abilities.

Neither parents nor schools nor individuals, themselves, may want to face the cold, hard, reality of how much human potential is lost for both girls and boys by the failures and inadequacies of the world around them. As science unravels more information about the effects of environment on internal environment and then on physiological development of the brain it will become more and more clear that "intellectual differences" are far less common between men and women than people now think they are.

Different hormones.
Men want to fix things and find a solution. Women need to talk it all through.

Example -Car drive;
Mom drives slow and careful. Says oops and sorry to other drivers.
Dad drives fast. Says get the hel* out of my way you moron, flips someone off regularly. Usually finds himself behind someone else's mother.

"boys have penis's, girls have vaginas." women express their emotions at any time and men dont. they usually to express feelings of love for example they do it through sex.

Hormones in women allow us to "wear our emotions on our sleeves" as where with men, there hormones do not allow them to. And it is not just with hormones. it is with how "society" says that a "man" and a "woman" should act.
