Men and women are different. Woah. Crazy, I know. Takes research to identify this:

The researchers measured behavioural traits in a broader fashion than previous studies did. They argued that these broader definitions provide a more accurate description of personality characteristics. “We believe we made it clear that the true extent of sex differences in human personality has been consistently underestimated,” they write.

They show women scored higher in sensitivity, warmth and anxiety (hello, my old friend). Men scored higher in emotional stability, dominance, rule-consciousness and vigilance (wariness). This is not to say that no man will ever be warm, or no woman will ever be rule-conscious. (Though I maintain that every woman will always be anxious. I have yet to meet an exception.) But that there are differences should not be a controversial thing. Unfortunately, it is, leaving me to discuss the issue on Sun TV lately (no link, sorry) because of this.
