I am sorry to strongly disagree here... I am not grounding my opinion on any scientific evidence at all, but I usually perceive that studies that come up with that kind of physical "differences" (hormone levels, for example) and other theories (as supposed "differences" in learning proccesses, thought schemes, and brain chemistry) as a lame excuse to justify what I see as a result of plain discrimination and very real differences in the way people are raised based on gender, sex roles and expectations. I admit there are physical and chemical differences between the sexes, but I am very skeptical as to whether those determine the actual abilities and performance of individuals or actually explain or justify the "differences" between the sexes, genders, call it what you want.
