Yeah, I am the GP though.
I cede that I'm always very skeptical about this "X are just wired for Y" stuff. Historically, this has always been used to discriminate against groups of people, and also historically these assertions have so far always turned out false. This is why I'm assuming a cultural background to this problem, not a physiological one. Just because something happens a lot doesn't mean the reasons are not cultural.
> I think there is self-fulfilling circular dependency between the idea that women are wired to be irrational and girl acting that way because the society already has that belief.
I agree absolutely.
