Testosterone. Testosterone makes all the difference. It does amazing things for men. For better or worse Mother Nature didn’t give a whole lot of it to women. Just as men don’t have estrogen. And as far as physical strength there again Mother Nature kind of leveled the playing field for women in that she didn’t give you gals quite the muscle mass she did to men. I don’t think she saw the whole ‘empowerment’’ thing coming. We’re hard wired in a number of ways to behave the way we do. Despite five million years of evolution basically women gave birth, tended the offspring, home(cave) and hearth while guys went out and killed the Woolly Mammoth, the feminists tell us we’re equal. Don’t know how that works. I’m a guy and I sure can’t get pregnant and give birth. Hats off to you women for that, I know it’s tough. Men respond to physical strength and physical power. It’s how we size each other up. The stronger guy almost always becomes the alpha male, the leader and the other males fall in as second and third in command but always with an eye on getting to be number one.
Oh yes indeed!
Well, we’re not living in ‘caves’ anymore; and I think estrogen can be useful in the workplace.
But women have to come up to speed, and realize that just as men have natural urges/inclinations that have needed to be brought under control for function in civilized society, women have same.
The problem, in my opinion, is that women have seemed to think that they DON’T have sex-specific, natural inclinations that might be troublesome in the ‘working world’, and which might need to be brought under control.
