Paper short abstract:
This paper ascertains that scientific findings now prove that female brains have the same potential than male brains. Until now gender equality policies have been enforced on the basis of ethics and not of science, time has come for a change that will have huge implications on women’s condition.
Paper long abstract:
Books based on flimsy science as "Man are from Mars, Women are from Venus" have been world-wide best sellers and equal rights for women have been mainly requested by the UN on the basis of moral values.
Still, in the same way that better science and (FST) had finally proven that racial categories are biologically meaningless even if differences between Caucasians, Mongoloids and Africans are obvious to the eyes, neuroscience has now proven (Vidal 2005, Jordan-young 2010, Fine 2010) that brain differences between individuals of the same sex are much broader than differences between larges groups divided by sex, that brain plasticity is nearly limitless well into middle age making negligible the influence of hormones in the womb, and that the brain of a newborn female baby has exactly the same potential than the brain of a male baby.
Better archeological technologies have now revealed that many warriors' tombs were in fact female warriors' tombs, contesting the universality of "blood taboos".
A review of Chinese Sui and Tang Annals describing in details one real matriarchal society will deliver the final blow to the theory of female inborn lack of leadership qualities (Chinese scholars never much bothered about that "barbarian" society because most still believe in the "early matriarchal stage"). I own a house in the remote mountains where this absolute matriarchy existed until 1270 years ago.
This paper relies mainly on scientific publications (more specifically those of the neurogenderings network) to prove that women do not have genetically determined roles.
