the sex hormone testosterone moulds the developing male brain.

Well, that's one way of putting it.

women devote more brain cells to talking than men.

Therefore . . . not as many are left for other things! Yes, it all makes sense now!

How much did THAT "Study" cost us?

I don't know, but if you find out let me know because I could publish a study TODAY on the color of grass.

Not surprising though I can think of at least one man, who if we aren't tied, outtalks me. As I often tell him, he was talking while he exited the womb and has never stopped.

"Or, to put it another way, men have an international airport for dealing with thoughts about sex, "where women have an airfield nearby that lands small and private planes"'

Dr Brizendine explains that testosterone also reduces the size of the section of the brain involved in hearing -allowing men to become "deaf" to the most logical of arguments put forward by their wives and girlfriends

Hmmm...just let a guy TRY to use that as a defense!

"Oh honey, I can't help it that I didn't 'hear' anything you said...I was born that way!"

Lol. My EH husband could out-talk me easily. Many, many times it was hard to get a word in on a conversation. Very frustrating sometimes.

My analysis: The average caveman had to be alert to guard against predators. the women could sit by the fire and chat, knowing they were protected.

The hairy cavemen said: 'Kill! Lion! Kill Tiger! Kill Bear!

The women around the fire said: 'I love your garlic necklace dear, and the way you do your hair...we have plenty of food this year, here have some more dried deer, and how has Grong been treating you, hmmm?

Given the barrage of verbal output, how can you sort out any logical arguments from the rest anyway?
