Absolutely - you don’t even need to venture far into the murky territory of psychological tendencies to observe that the male and female experience is massively shaped by obvious biological differences. These differences are what give rise to the sociological phenomenon of gender stereotypes. Some of these stereotypes have a strong connection to the underlying biology (“women are good at caring for babies”), others might have a small kernel of truth but are mostly obsolete hindrances (“women aren’t good at programming”).

A parallel can be drawn to the much higher prevalence of autism in males, which some studies attribute to a less sensitive mirror neuron system. In contrast, women are much more empathetic and able to acknowledge, process and understand emotions both in others and themselves.
