Y'know, I could write an essay in response to that. The comp science bit especially. But I really, really don;t have time. I'd like to. But I have to be a bit strict with myself.
So I'll just say this:
I'm not saying there aren't differences. But here's the thing: are those differences because one has a boy brain and the other has a girl brain; or is that one has a type A brain and the other has a type C brain, and girls are more likely than boys to have a type C brain, and boys are more likely than girls to have a type A brain?
Because both those paths might lead to a broadly similar outcome, but they have very different implications.
