Equal does not mean the same!

Many would have you believe that girls and boys act unalike mostly based on their environment. Many believe that since boys and girls are treated dissimilar they grow up different. Much research shows though that a lot of these differences actually has to do with biology and hence the contrast between boy and girls is more innate.

 Such contrasting differences can even be seen from birth. Many babies, who are to young to fully understand their surroundings, act differently to situation. Even evolutionally this would make sense that we fit into certain categories. Woman have to put all their energy into making a baby, because of this, man evolved to be more protective in order to protect his wife during this venerable time when she is creating. He also will then need to protect her and their child when they are both weak from the birthing process.  biologically men have more grey matter in there brain which allows more storage and processing. Woman have more white matter which allows them to make up to 5 times faster connections between the emotional and verbal part of their brains. This explains why woman tend to be more comfortable talking about their feelings. Another way to see sex traits contrast through biology is actually by looking at people who don't fit the mold.  CAH girls find themselves to be very tom boy, they tend to be rougher and not as nurturing, they also aren't as comfortable with feelings. So how does this prove that traits are biological? Well CAH girls are actually exposed to more testosterone while they are in the uteral. So yes some people aren't as feminine or masculine but that also can be contributed to biology not just purely environment. Society has tried to make boys and girls more equal and it has simply not worked. Toy companies have made dolls for boys and video games for girls but they simple do not get the same attention as their other more stereotypical boy girl toys. 

Men and woman in general are different and that's ok. It is how God designed us. We are born with different traits that make us who we are. By bringing these traits together in marriage we complete each other and make a more perfect whole.
