Louann Brizendine, M.D., is a neuropsychiatrist. I presume she knows what she's talking about. The book makes me think she does. Read this. It's worth it.Yes, the above is exactly what, and all, I said about her book, The Female Brain. That's because I always get in trouble with women when I share what SHE wrote in HER book. Because I'm male I guess I can't read. Whatever.As far as the male brain goes, what about these: Pushing His Limits, Showing His Strength, First In Line, Looking Good and Saving Face, Winner Takes All, One-upsmanship. Maybe you recognize these. There are others.Did you know that a male human takes .2 seconds to assess whether a female human is one he would pursue.This is a quick read. I recommend the notes, too. Always a little torn about these kinds of books - the author makes a good case for some true biological neurologic differences between men and women, even does a decent job where she can at separating out nature from nurture. My worry and concern is what do we *do* with that information. Should we consistently treat men and women differently? How can we be egalitarian and considerate of our differences? Not really addressed in this book. Definitely gets you thinking.
What do You think about The Male Brain (2010)?
Not as informative as I'd hoped, but did shed some light on some.

They're not bad.... they're just marinated that way.
