epsilon-sexual:

Tumblr needs to quit pretending men and women are the same. They’re not. We have physical and mental differences. It’s not a bad thing or a good thing, it’s just different.

Here’s the thing: To any extent those differences do exist beyond what is socially conditioned (and I suspect a lot is socially conditioned), the difference is in statistical averages, and cannot be used to predict the traits of any given individual.

The average man is taller than the average woman, but the tallest person in the world could at any given point be a woman or the shortest a man.

What differences do exist beyond what is socially conditioned remains questionable.

Also considering how little dimorphism we exhibit in comparison to our closest relative species suggests the sexes are honestly statistically pretty similar.
