    They say men can't hear and women can't read a map because men are from Mars and women are from Venus!

    What I say is - guys you are all living on earth and so you'd better learn to follow another cliche "when in Rome do as Romans do"!!!

    Actually, I wonder if these cliches came because they are true or do we now blindly justify certain things because they validate the cliche? Or is it that these sayings somehow guide us unconsciously to behave in these predefined ways?

    How many of these gender differences are really inborn and how many are perpetuated by societal treatments?

    Are girls' brains really somehow less capable of comprehending maths or driving trucks?

    Are boys really less capable of using their small muscles or nurturing?

    What would happen if girls and boys were encouraged to develop their 'other' selves? Would it totally screw up their psyches? Or is it that it is the society that would be psyched and unable to accept the opposite of something that it has been trained is acceptable?
