Yeah, the next paragraph goes on to state:
>The biological-determinist arguments, when examined closely, are not good science. Further, ideas of "natural masculinity" become a way of excusing men's violence, as similar arguments about "natural" difference between human groups have excused racial inequality and colonialist violence in the past. |

IMO - I personally feel that it has a little to do with all of it.......... hormones, society, upbringing, socializing, conditioning, and the media........................ and I personally put a lot of stock in biological reactions, for both testosterone & estrogen have a major effect on the mind and body, both young and old - male and female.

I'm just trying to draw attention to where the science is at... |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
