so you believe that physical difference between sexes in size of the brain, is not due to sex? what would you say this is caused by? I would like to point out that saying this changes are due to evolution not sex is unvalid because then no

This is a strawman I'm very hard pressed to find anyone in HN at least who would deny Goolgle's right or another other party's right of writing a rebuttal to his claims. A free and open internal debate is exactly what Damore
