NOT SO DIFFERENT IN THE END

By Gina Paola Avila Uribe

SCIENCE CONFIRMS THAT THE BRAIN
OF MEN AND WOMEN IS EQUAL
MORE SIMILAR THAN DIFFERENT

The male brain is larger, even taking into account that, overall, the
male body is more voluminous. And they assure that it is also more
variable and that explains why they are more different physically and
mentally than women.

As for the female brain, the cortex, a region that is related to higher
cognitive functions, is thicker. According to the work, that could explain
why they score better on intelligence tests.
 SERIOUS LIMITATIONS

The article clearly explains that the differences are too few to say that
there are two versions of the organ. But to drop that the fact that
women have the thickest crust could be the cause of getting better
scores on intelligence tests manages to misrepresent the message.

There are small differences but they are not so relevant as to say that
they do not look like anything
 STUDIES

Through scientific studies it has been concluded that men tend to use
aggression more, and also dominance, as a means towards an objective,
but in women there is greater communication between both
hemispheres, which makes them more flexible, so she can´t use
aggresion more than man.
 DIFFERENCES IN CONNECTIVITY

In this sense, two studies -one conducted in 2013 and the other in 2016-
have revealed the following. The first of them, led by Ragini Verma, a
researcher at the radiology department of the University of
Pennsylvania (USA), found that the structures of brain connections of
men and women are very different: while men have many connections
within each One of the two hemispheres, women have many connections
between them; so she use to do more than one task at the same time
 SIMILARITIES

• Women are good for mathematics, and so are men.

• Women can learn activities that were usually from men like playing
soccer, so are men, he can also do it like learning to cook.

• Women can perform the same jobs as men, so are men.

 CONCLUSION
If there is a difference, but it is not so transcendental as to say that they
do not appear in anything.

Simply, women develop skills different from men, which in the end up
being a complement to each other either in the affective field, in
cognitive abilities or in spatial development. In the end, men can not
live without women, either out of habit or out of necessity they can not
live without them either.
