More Alike Than Different

“As we can see from the world around us, men and women are different. But how are we different? Our bodies have obvious differences, but what about our personalities and interests? Anyone who has spent time with children can tell you that boys and girls tend to play and interact in distinct ways. From comparing notes with friends, I can confirm that raising a household of boys is not the same as raising a household of girls.

From our observations, we can make generalizations about men and women, boys and girls. Men tend to be physically bigger and stronger. Women tend to be smaller and physically vulnerable. Boys may prefer playing with cars and tend to turn any household object into a weapon. Girls may like playing with baby dolls and pretending to be a mommy.”
