Right, of course, since we live in an universe devoid of genetic differences, it stands to reason that two groups described differently are in fact different.

Genetic differences are FACTS. If you do not account for facts, you're operating in the twilight zone.
- bbctol 9y agoHey, the Twilight Zone was always my favorite show. It's a place between mystery and imagination, a place where the laws of reality are bent, a place where people arbitrarily start thinking you said genes don't exist.
- orpheansodality 9y agoIt would indeed be hard to argue that there are not genetic differences between people of different sexes. It does not, however, follow that all perceived differences in behavior between gender groups are genetic at root. It would be rather dishonest of me to say "men in the US like trucks, therefore liking trucks is embedded in the male geneome" without considering that there could be a societal aspect to that behavior. Genetic differences may be facts, but blindly assigning genetic causation to perceived behavior without completely ruling out other possible influencing factors is just bad science.
- zepto 9y agoGenetic differences are facts, but if you think that our understanding of what they imply about society is factual, you simply don't understand science.
