>Because the differences between male and female "bodies", meaning anatomical differences like sex characteristics, are obvious and self-evident, while differences in brain structure are not and therefore require careful study. That seems like a very odd, unscientific position to take. We know that men and women have different physical characteristics and hormonal affects (as an obvious example, women have a menstrual cycle while men do not). Ergo, the hypothalamus and pituitary gland (two areas of the brain which play pivotal roles in the human endocrine system) are structurally different between the sexes; this is obvious and self-evident.
