What is it that makes men and women seem to think and act so differently from each other? Are our minds biologically different? Discover the truth behind gender differences and learn how your own beliefs and behaviors are being subconsciously influenced.

Delusions of Gender is a look into the dubious science behind gender differences in the human brain. Though many studies and theories claim to prove that male and female brains are wired differently in biological terms, their findings simply cannot be trusted. Understand what really causes such differences in gender and then use your newfound knowledge to work toward true equality.

You will learn:

· How both parents and children are influenced by gender bias

· The role that society plays in the differences between men and women

· Why you should be wary when studies claim to prove gender differences in the brain, and how to spot the flaws.

    Женщина - человек! А вообще круто осознавать, что нет такого понятия, как мужской и женский ум. Он, на самом деле, универсальный, человеческий, и если перестать ориентироваться на гендерные стереотипы, то это можно осознать.

    Again, always remember that science isn’t without its faults
  • Yulia Sausanhas quoted3 years ago
    As human beings, we innately dislike feeling as if we don’t belong in our surroundings, and so we often adjust our behavior to fit in
  • Yulia Sausanhas quoted3 years ago
    However, the real truth is that no one has been able to definitively prove that males and females are genetically hardwired to think, feel, and act in a certain way.
