I must respectfully beg to differ. Few the women I know are "emotionally weak." They do tend to be less stoic than men, but that is very different from weak, and I suspect that is at least partially cultural. I do think men are more stoic about dealing with minor problems in life (in general), but that has to do with how they express it, not how well they actually deal with it. I also tend to find that men, in general, are less wordy, especially about emotional topic, but I think that is less about men being better at nonverbal communication. In fact, I find in general, the women I know are stronger in that area. The difference is that women tend to spend a lot of words agreeing as a cultural means of bonding, where men don't. This doesn't mean they do it for communication, they do it for affirmation of the relationship. I will agree that, in general, women are more interested in feelings and relationships then men, but not because these are simple things or unimportant, or even that most men see them that way. It is simply a difference of focus. For instance, I do not find medicine "a simple thing unworthy of too much brainpower", I rather find that it is outside my domain and I let doctors worry about that while I worry about normalization and effecient storage structures...
