We do know quite a bit on the subject. They have done PET scans of men and women solving the same problems and the way men and women's brains are wired was very noticeably different. When they have done dissections of men and women's brains they noticed that women have SIGNIFICANTLY more connections between the 2 brain hemispheres. This means that women can shuttle data between the 2 halves of the brain at a much faster rate. That's not nurture that's nature. Also we know for a fact that testosterone and estrogen significantly alters behavior, simply by virtue of the differences in levels of these 2 hormones alone means that the way men and women think is going to be different. Because hormones operate on the entire body including the brain. So no I am not buying this as simply being a nurture issue.

take look at twins studies. It is amazing how much behavior is in genes. for Example they studied a pair of twins separated at birth. The picked up coffee cups in the exact same manner. I am very interested in history. My mom is not and I never knew my dad really. Turns out my father also does reenacting.

But fact of the matter is the article you are sighting was not being discriminatory. It was acknowledging that women operate differently then men and that women were frustrated with the way electronics were designed. Since when is acknowledging the data in a study being discriminatory?
