[lace-chat] Left or right brain?male or female brain?
The post I sent this morning seems to have got lost in the ether. Here it is repeated with typos corrected :-) BBC1 TV is running a series this week on whether you have a male or female brain - that doesn't mean you are male or female. The theory behind it is that the way your brain works depends on the amount of testosterone you were subjected to as an embryo in the womb at a certain point of development. They say that generally men use one side of the brain, but the two sides of the brain in women can comunicate with each other so they use areas not used by men. The results of experiements carried out this week are shown, which so far uphold the male/female brain regardless of sex theory. There's an online test as well at: http://www.bbc.co.uk/theoneshow/article/2007/10/mm_brainsex.shtml The average performances for people taking the test on a scale of 0-100 each side of male and female, men have so far come out 50 towards male and women 50 towards female. I came in at 25 towards male, and both my ring fingers are longer then my index fingers. If the fingers are the same length, that's counted as female. Fun to do, but don't take it too seriously. I suspect the online test will be removed from the web site over the weekend because the programme will go on to another topic next week.

The test might have been taken off the web site by now because the result of all those who took it was given in the programme last night. Pity it took so long for my post to get through to Arachne. The original was sent at around 9 am yesterday morning, but hadn't appeared on my computer by 6 pm. Wasn;t on the archive either. The second post appeared later twice. The final result was that approximately 1 in 4 women show traits of a male brain and 1 in 4 men female. The final test was a room with several objects in it which they looked at for 60 seconds. Then some were moved and they had to say which. This was the only test where women were better at it than men regardless of whether their brain leant towards male or female. Apparently women are better at finding things than men - that's why women can find their husband's socks when he can't But women put the socks away!!! Guess who said that last statement.

I came in at 25 towards female - and I could make Tamara's dancer spin both ways.
