What do you make of studies that show monkeys and humans have a similar gender-biased breakdown of toy preferences and juvenile activities?

My first guess would be that those studies are probably poorly executed.

If they were indeed properly double-blinded and used good statistical analysis, I would find that to be and extremely interesting result that would warrant further investigation.

Is that supposed to be a citation? Try as I might I can't seem to find any further details on this study, which seems like it was conducted as part of a TV program rather than as a research paper.

For more information about the discussion of research into gender-based neuroscience, here is an actual article: http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal....

Get off your high horse - I just pointed you toward where I had seen something about it.
