Biological differences and parenting in non-human and human animals discussed
The claim that males don't have any male parental investment fails to consider that males do very little parenting in the vast majority of animals, especially those including humans in which males compete intensely for status. Men invest considerably more in children than do the males of our closest relatives./nHumans are among the exceptions to the pattern of males not investing much in parenting, in which males of chimpanzees and bonobos are uniformly deadbeats./nBrain patterns can be used to correctly identify whether the owner is a man or a woman with 93 to 96% accuracy./nThe goal of the article was to show the ways in which society has in some ways, because there are biological differences, given license to men in particular.
