Men and Women's Brains

When i was teaching philosophy of the mind at wells college, julian janes said that men's brains were less evolutionarily advanced than women's. So part of what was happening was people's prejudices were getting read into the interpretation of data. And so we had to go back and get the data. One of the distinctions that i found a between men and women's brains which i was interested in, again, because i was teaching all women,. Men's brains are more lateralized than women’s. Lateralized means that you could focus in one but not both at the same time. That has a whole history, which would take us another session to deal with.
