- What about some of the fascinating research regarding the differences
- in the brains of males and females that might explain some observed
- behaviour differences between the sexes? Many of these behaviour
- differences, (for example preschool aged girls being more interested in
- conversations (with others, their toys and even themselves) vs. boys
- vocalizations being much more oriented to imitating motor noises), do
- not seem to be the result of any kind of cultural condition, but actually
- seem to be due to wiring differences. Could it be possible that these
- wiring differences could affect sexual orientation and preferences? Perhaps
- there is more going on than simple exploitation by the porn industry.
