Several studies have shown that man's brain"wiring"is very different from that of women, that many times before the same situations or tasks different neuronal zones are activated in each case and that this may be the cause of the different behaviors, more Beyond social and cultural influence.
In this article I will show you the Differences between men and women Physical, biological, psychological, social and cultural.
Execution of tasks
It has always been said that men are only capable of doing one thing at a time, while women can cook, watch TV and do homework with children, all at the same time.
Now, researchers have found a possible scientific explanation for this phenomenon.
According to a study carried out in the University of Pennsylvania , Men have a greater number of neural connections at the front of the brain , Where the focal point for actions is located, and also in The cerebellum , An important center for perception.
In women, a greater number of connections were found Between both hemispheres ; The right hemisphere, the person in charge of the analysis and treatment of information, and the left hemisphere, related to intuition.
It is possible that this is the reason why men tend to be more fit to learn And perform a single task, such as skiing, sailing or cycling, while women have a higher memory, greater social intelligence, ability to perform multiple tasks and find integral solutions.

Organization of information
In The male brain , The information is organized into groups or segments that could be represented as"boxes". So the man has a"box"for work, another for the family, another for football and even have a box for"nothing."
Instead, In the women All these groups of information are interconnected and"everything has to do with everything". Therefore, in a conversation or discussion, the woman will typically go naturally from one issue to another.
And in addition, women do not have a"nothing"box and so when they ask their husband what he is thinking and he answers them: nothing, because they simply do not believe it.
Hormones and behavior
It is known that men have a level of Testosterone 20 times higher than that of women, and this is probably the reason men generally have Attitudes More aggressive and dominant.
On the other hand, the levels of certain female hormones change over the course of the menstrual period and so moods in women can be very variable too, especially during the well-known premenstrual syndrome.
Sense of orientation
Due to the differences in Neural connections , Men tend to be better oriented when they find themselves in places they do not know well.
On the other hand, in women the orientation ability is not so marked and that is why they stop at the gas stations to ask for directions or ask for directions to the first pedestrian they encounter.
Women worry more than men
Although the reasons are not very clear, women worry more than men.
In general, they perform more frequent medical check-ups, exercise to control their weight and take better care of themselves. This may appear to be related to the higher levels of anxiety Which have been found in women compared to men.
But beware, because women also tend to worry excessively.
Men have a lower tendency to depression
Men have a lower risk of To suffer depression . Scientists are currently studying the possible causes of this difference, which could be due to biological or social factors.
Hormones may play a major role in the development of depression in women, as they vary significantly throughout the women's lives. Researchers have shown that hormones directly affect the secretion of neurotransmitters in the brain, which control moods and emotions.
How is the sex
Undoubtedly, in this respect there are striking differences between men and women. Sensitivities aside, men take sex as a physiological function more, just like eating or urinating. It does not need a preamble, nor contexts, nor the hope of a post-act relationship.
On the other hand, because the woman is much more emotional, she expects a special atmosphere and a promise of"something more"when having sex.
A taste for football or cars
Men clearly like soccer much more and everything related to cars, compared to women, although there are exceptions of course.
And it is not just a trend marked by the society or the culture in which we live immersed.
A well-known scientific study placed dolls, cars and toy balls within reach of Rhesus monkeys Baby, males and females, and guess what. The males chose more times the balls and the cars, whereas the females preferred the dolls.
And in this case, there were no social"rules"that could influence.
Recent research suggests that the action of sex hormones in the fetal stage may be responsible for these differences, which also occur in children. They prefer to play with strollers and balls because it involves more physical activity.
Find things
Who lives or has lived with a man, knows that it is difficult for them to find things. If you are or have been a wife or a girlfriend, you have heard many times:"My love, where are the keys to the car"or"I can not find the new pants", even though both things are in the same place.
Apparently, this may be because the man's field of vision resembles a"tunnel", that is, they see only what they have in front, while the woman has a more panoramic view.
As you can see, the differences are many and well marked, but this really does not have to be seen as a bad thing; indeed, many researchers believe that the brains and psychological characteristics of men and women are complementary and facilitate the survival of the species.

And what differences have you observed between men and women? I am interested in your opinion. Thanks!
