Scientists have studied the issue and done countless hours of research to come up with the radical conclusion that men and women are different.
It's a brave expert who'll chart a course through these controversial waters.Shocking! This is the biggest revelation since the Scopes Monkey Trial. This is the kind of stuff that would get a Harvard president in hot water. Get this man another grant.But that hasn't stopped Michael Gurian, psychologist and author of "What Could He Be Thinking?".
He believes there are about a hundred structural differences that have been identified between the male and female brain.
"Men, because we tend to compartmentalize our communication into a smaller part of the brain, we tend to be better at getting right to the issue," he said.
"The more female brain (will) gather a lot of material, gather a lot of information, feel a lot, hear a lot, sense a lot," he said.
Scientists say males have more activity in mechanical centers of the brain, whereas females show more activity in verbal and emotional centers.
