I am more more like the men that i work with than the women...so yes, i'd say that the big differences between the sexes are mostly learned.

It is difficult to see what we would be like without the influence of societies. We have had somewhat different roles because of biological differences. The sex of a person is becoming less important than their mental abilities. I think it would be boring if we were all of the same sex. And there were were no differences. We are all human beings we are more alike than different.

Similar. There may well be differences in the 'average' woman and the 'average' man for certain behaviours, but there is so much variation within the sexes that it makes no sense to discriminate against individuals.

Both! There are things we have in common: we want to be loved and respected, we want to be happy and free, we don't like being cheated on or lied to or taken advantage of or abused. But there are many ways in which men and women are different. We react to things differently and look at the same issue from different perspectives. We express and handle emotions in different ways. Our brains do not function in the same way, either.

Well are similar as in we all have same goals, want to be treated right, respected and want people to value us for who we are. the difference is how we do things, how do we want to be treated, respected, and how we want people to value us.In which ways.

I see more similarities than differences. The differences that do exist almost always transcend gender, except when they're anatomical.

I think we are a lot the same, woman are raised to be pretty to attract men, i don't think they necessarily want to always wear skirts and lipstick but they know it looks good so they do it, although i think woman can be a tad more evil when they are in a relationship or married.

There are far more similarities between men & women than there are differences. It's just that we as a society tend to put more focus & emphasis on our differences, which can be both good or bad.
