Female Brains

[czx85]

Women experience physical pain differently than men - that may be a reason for differences in methods and success rates.

Why the sexes don’t feel pain the same way

After decades of assuming that pain works the same way in all sexes, scientists are finding that different biological pathways can produce an ‘ouch!’.

I'm so sorry that you have to feel this way. I can totally understand why being a female in third world Muslim country sucks.
Is there any way that you can move out to abother country?

 

[Makko]

My problem is not with femininity but with humanity/mammals. If I had a choice I'd stay female but swap speceis for spider. Then boys would mate-dance for me and then I'd eat them and go back to my comfy web to incubate one billion wriggly spider babbies. A truly superior way of existence

Yes but you have to do the dance first.

She is living in a muslim country, she probably has stereotypes imposed on her 24/7 I am afraid.

Ain't that a stereotype too ? Initially, I come from a muslim country too, before immigrating, and I don't recall most of the female population complaining about religious laws in general and being too submissive against their will. Try to refrain to comment from an external viewpoint if the concepts are foreign to you ? ...

 

[BitterlyAlive_]

I hate having a "female" brain too, as stupid as it may sound to others. That combined with trauma/depression, etc, is just hell for me and probably everyone else, too.

I know I sound ignorant but I really hate being so sensitive. Obviously anyone can be sensitive, but I feel like being a woman makes it worse.

[VoidDesirer22]

Lol and I fucking despise my male brain. Getting horny multiple times a day intensely is a nightmare for me. I wish I had no libido and no sexuality. I wish to be a glowing orb.

Well, you certainly don't come from the middle east.

Tbh i get horny multiple times a day too, but i also get the downside of being able to get pregnant against my will. So i hate it.

Literally, it doesn't make sense. Females are supposed to be the ones with bigger muscles to protect their babies, but evolution prioritizes force-breeding (raping) thus making men stronger than us just to create more offsprings. Nature is evil.

 

[Goodbye710]

As a man, you are correct. We are 3x stronger, 3x more logical, far less sensitive and emotional. We logically understand things that women never will. We can penetrate understanding certain topics that women almost never will. We are built for this world. Like a lion. It's what testosterone does.

With that said, it comes at a "massive" tradeoff that you don't understand. Women can see things, feel things that men never will experience. Women see the broader picture while men can penetrate deeper on certain topics... physically and mentally.

Imagine going through life and never seeing beauty. Never knowing anything good in this world but pain. Imagine going through life always tense.That is what it's like being a man. The only time we get our chance of seeing life as a woman sees life is when we have children of our own. That is generally when we see the world in a different light.

It's like being color blind.

Testosterone hyperfocuses men on a certain area while women get a broader range of what it means to be human.

We each have the same amount but testosterone hyperfocuses us men which is a massive tradeoff. It is why men want to be around women. So that we can view the world through another lens. And it is why women want men around to be protected and provided for. We are meant to compliment each other. Being alone in this world men have a massive tradeoff and being alone in this world as a woman women do to. That is why we are not suppose to be alone.

 

[Makko]

We are 3x stronger

This is my biggest gripe with the status quo, I want to punch people so bad but I can't hurt anyone with my tiny arms

Well, something must've fucked up on me then.

 

[deflationary]

We are built for this world.

Explains why I find men to be generally more repulsive than women. The more in tune with the basic nature of the world someone is, the less likable they are. The more things there are that make someone suffer, the more likable they are. Effective people seriously gross me out.

The above is of course highly self-serving.

 

[Alec]

I don't want to be a dumb emotional support woman. That makes me feel inferior as fuck. I'd rather be an unemotional logical man in combat suit. Makes me feel powerful. And having a hole which allows just anyone with a dick to force-fertilize me before they leave me to suffer alone certainly helps setting the reality that i am just a female, with weaker muscles and weaker logic. Fuck this world.

I think that's a very hurtful and toxic stereotype to paint men as "unemotional and logical in a combat suit" society forces men to hide their feelings telling them that "real men" don't feel, because it's convenient this way for society, and because people are dumb, but also, it's easier for the government to force a man to go fight in a war for them if they say "what are you a girl? Man aren't afraid of fighting!" And shit like that trying to humiliate and dehumanize men to force them to do the dirty work. In reality men feel emotions just like women, society just forces men to hide these emotions or else they don't consider them "real men". I think it's wrong and very toxic to think that men are "unemotional" of course they feel things, just because men are afraid to show feelings doesnt mean they don't have them. That's what I always thought.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

I wish I could think more like a male but other than randomly getting the urge to jam my sausage into feminine pastrami every so often, I'm too weak to be a proper man so I can somewhat relate.

I guess there are ways to compare how bad being an alpha female over a beta male is though both probably suck for different reasons.

Someone needs to do the dirty work. You can't have everyone sitting around just feeling feels and not doing the necessary things, society would collapse. It just so happens that men have a greater capacity to do the dirty work, so they do. This isn't exactly new and it's not going to change.

None of this is right in my opinion. All of this just sounds like sexist brainwashing. I don't think that's what testosterone does lol, also as men get old their testosterone levels drop drastically wouldn't it be then by your logic when men could "experience seeing the world in full"? And not when having kids? First you say it's all because of testosterone and then you say having kids changes that? How does having kids suddenly change what testosterone does to your body?? Not trying to go after you but this literally makes no logical sense. Edit: also, how about gay men and women? They just want to be with someone of their own sex, so are they complementing each other in different ways?

That wasn't my point, my point was you can be strong and do the fighting without having to shut off your feelings. Having feeling doesn't make you weak(not talking about debilitating is depression because that's a whole another conversation), and shaming men into suppressing their feelings is not going to make them stronger it will just make them weaker, that's literally one of the biggest reasons men develop depression and end up ctbing, there are must be an incredible amount of men here too who suicidal because of this oppression from society and the incredible toxic image of "real men". Also, forcing somebody else to do your dirty work is never a good on an ok thing to do...I can't believe I have to say that...Edit: also that's not true, men don't have a greater capacity to do the dirty work, physically and mentally speaking it's all about training, it always has been, but if we are talking about specific male/female bodies differences then yes, male's body has it easier to gain muscle strength, but female's bodies are naturally more flexible and resistant which speaking on terms of cave men times and hunting for survival levels out the playing field, men were better at hunting certain types of animals and women were better at hunting other types of animals. In any case speaking of physical attributes as our best chance of survival as a species is extremely illogical. Think about it: humans aren't the fastest, we don't have strong claws or strong teeth to pierce flesh, our own flesh is very weak and not resistant to bites at all, we can't service extreme weather without clothes and houses, and we can't adapt our bodies to hide in the wild like a chameleon for example, by all of these humans should be on the bottom of the food chain in the world, but humans are literally on top of it, why? Because of intelligence, humans use brains and intellect to invent things and better our chances of survival, we are only on top because we are smarter then the rest of the animals. And intelligence doesn't come from what sex you were assigned at birth, if anybody thinks it doesn't - then they haven't been paying attention.

 

[stygal]

Being physically weaker is one thing that most women are, indeed - big disadvantage.

But other than that - write your own narrative, don't look at societal stereotypes on how genders were/are portrayed - just act the way you'd like to act.
Nobody can tell you to stick to made up and invisible rules just because you were born female.

I personally can't really identify with either stereotypical behavior and don't like too much emotion or dominance/violence.

I completely agree with what you have to say. It's sad to see both women and men giving in to sexist stereotypes.

Both males and females are emotional. These emotions are just displayed in different ways. Men are encouraged to hide their feelings and appear stoic, while the same standard isn't applied to females. Men are expected to provide and be someone who can be relied on, which is a large amount of pressure, and without really having anyone of their own to rely on in turn. This does contribute to the male depression and suicide and so I can't see this as being a positive thing.

Women also have had the standard of being "hysterical" applied to them all throughout history, in order to dismiss their concerns. Men being any more rational or logical is a myth. There are differences between the sexes, yes, but this doesn't mean one is superior or inferior to the other. And as @Alec said brute strength doesn't mean much when our greatest strength as humans is our intelligence, and what propelled us up the food chain and allowed us to create tools.

Any description that you can make about males or females can only be said to be true of a group-- on average. But everyone is an individual and that does not mean every female is "weaker" or more emotional than every man. It's blatantly false and an impossible statement to make, and it's not being fair to a woman to declare her less female because she thinks in a more logical way, nor is it fair to a man declare him less male because he is more sensitive or considerate.

I'm sorry you feel this way, OP.

 

[NoSurprises]

Dont be silly, woman or male are equally stupid and nonsensical, we as humans are a very flawed and limited species, its nothing to do with gender or hormones

 

[Nightmare]

I think like men. I am more logical. But does my female brain still affect my thinking process? If that's the truth, i hate it. I hate having a female brain. Females are physically and emotionally weaker than men. Females are more prone to suicidal thougts but men are more successful in killing themselves, proves that females are inefficient even when they don't want to live. I hate being born as a female. I may be more logical than most women, but who knows what's truly inside my cerebral cortex? I feel inferior to men. Really just want to blow my fucking brain with a gun right now.

you have advantages and disadvantages when it comes to gender, female can manipulate men and men do like that, this is an evolutionary fact
study evolutionary psychology, you will get many answers of which you seek and you'll be surprised of how much science can explain

I'm sorry you feel this way but it's definitely not true that women are inferior in any way. I know many, many intelligent women that can hold their own.

I accept there are differences though.

BRUH. I'd trade everything to not be seen as a weak female. But i don't agree that ALL women prioritize feelings over logic. A small percentage of women don't give a fuck about other people's feelings. I'm one of them tbh. We're just the minority, but we certainly do exist. Just like not all women experience period pain.

Not all males or females act a certain way. You can't really place everyone into a box based on their sex at birth.

Yeah lmao, and because i don't act like the stereotypical women, some people say i 'think like men' and some of them even assume that i'm gay. what the fuck.

 

[Greenberg]

I'm generally more logical but I'm cursed with pursuing what I consider a real love. That's when I get emotional and all of my reason flies out of the window.

I'm sure something to suppress oestrogen might put paid to that but I rail at the idea of fucking my body up just because people have been an epic letdown (with eating disorders and self harm apparently being okay.. more non-logic).

If I may paraphrase: The heart knows what the mind cannot understand.

 

[Zaz]

Let me ask: Are you a female?

F who grew up in Jordan

 

[Gustav Hartmann]

Evolution made woman more careful than man due to their inbuilt incubator. I know that evolution is intending nothing, but it is easier for me to talk in a foreign language about it, if I pretend evolution is a smart designer. It has also an evolutionary advantage, if men live riskier and if they even give their lives for their community. If 90 % of the males of a population are killed the population will recover soon, if 90 % of the females are killed it will probably die out.

I am sure that women are at least as aggressive and brutal as men if their children are in danger.
