Women are thought to be more emotional and less logical than men. There is now evidence to suggest why that is. The two halves of the human brain are responsible for different functions. The right half is responsible for emotion. The left half of the brain is responsible for logic.
Women have equal access to both halves.
This all sounds a bit colossal, I know, but I'm not making this up. My wife, Cindy has a friend in Mackinaw, IL who came to visit us after just getting back from her doctor one day. She seemed frustrated so Cindy asked her what was wrong. She had just been reading a book on the things I am writing about and felt that her doctor was too logical and didn't have enough human feelings for her. By men having greater access to the right hemisphere of the brain than the left, men tend to be more logical and show less emotion.
