The eyes have it: Men do see things differently to women
The way that the visual centers of men and women’s brains works is different, finds new research published in BioMed Central’s open access journal Biology of Sex Differences. Men have greater sensitivity to fine detail and rapidly moving stimuli, but women are better at discriminating between colors.
women are better at discriminating between colors.
Well I’m red-green colorblind so I never stood a chance anyway. If it isn’t in a box of 8 crayons/markers, I don’t attempt to use that color’s name generally, cuz I will never pick the right shade. All the fuschias, magentas, maroons, burnt siennas, teals, cyans, etc. of the world can fuck off.
I see.
Still can’t find your damned socks though
But your girlfriend can, because she can distinguish the sock colour from the floor colour easier…nature, it just works.
So what i’m hearing is that i should attach all items my husband regulalrly loses track of to a moving object to play into his sight strengths. Basket on the ceiling fan it is
Super helpful, thx!
Wait a minute, you’re not my husband!
Goddamend nature and all these bugs disguised as features!
Because socks don’t move.
… Men are also ~20% larger than women on average. Is this count standardized by size of the person?
Does that include brain size? I mean yeah the total sum of all size comparisons is 20% larger, but like piece per piece that ain’t remotely true (see boobs for an example that defies the total average).
So when you transition, does this part of the brain get lobotomized?
No, though brain physiology does respond to hormonal shifts.
This doesn’t invalidate trans folks. No one says they are physically completely equal to cis people. It just doesn’t matter.
I must assume this was said in bad faith, if so, stop.
I’m curious about this. They say that it’s related to in utero exposure to androgens, which means it’s probably not as clear cut as XX vs XY, because intersex folk and folk with atypical hormonal exposure (such as fraternal twins of different sexes, with a shared placenta) experience different levels of exposure, and different reactions to that exposure.
But most things human are regulated by hormones, because of genes.
Yes, absolutely. But as I said, it’s probably not as clear cut as whether you’re XX or XY, because there are other factors that can also impact hormone levels and sensitivity to hormones
Because only the fittest/strongest hunted and the others gathered/crafted i guess?
It doesn’t seem that is so clear cut:
Men need to find animal
Women needed to make sure it was safe to eat
Men need to find animal
Women needed to make sure it was safe to eat
Most food eaten wasn’t harvested from animals for most of human history in most cases. The obsession with hunting and meat consumption is a cultural one FROM CURRENT CULTURE (especially in the US where I live).
There really is no good reason to enforce our current conceptions of gender, masculinity and feminity on wildly big swaths of human history. It is always a lie best case, worst case it plays into dangerous narratives about who “men” and “women” are “”“”“naturally”“”“” supposed to be.
These kinds of reductive generalizations seem fun to make but they are hurtful, just plain wrong and honestly just kind of boring compared to the actual truth.
Lol, you’re silly
Prob cause we’ve been hunters for so long.
Women and men were equally hunters, it is a complete myth that it was only been
Equal? No. There’s ONE report from two years ago that claimed that and it was torn up when it was published. Women did hunt, but not as often as men.
I wonder if that correlates with hallucinations or seizures.
women are better at discriminating between colors.
Misread this as saying women are better at racism lol.
