Krishna: To be frank I didn’t know anything about this man. I googled his name and google took me to this video of his. Before adding it here, I want to add a few things.

This is a science space. We talk only science here. What this man talks is not science but just his silly perception. Some people say things to attract people and become famous. Actors? Yes! This person too is a good actor. A comic actor? Yes. This influences people a lot. If we talk science, people start yawning. But let me try.

The female brain: damaging myths about women and science keep coming back in new forms. But we try to bust them and I wrote on this sometime back. Want to read what I wrote? Then Click on this link :

Get this right: Brains are not differentiated into pink and blue ones

This article is very easy to understand and doesn’t eat your brain. I can guarantee you that.

So Please do read it before watching this video. This is a must! If you don’t read my article, don’t watch this video.

Pseudo-scientific neuro-science that deals with sexism (1). Neurosexism is the sexist assumption that gender differences perceived in character and behaviour are caused by biological differences in brains. Neurosexism provides a framework for treating people differently on the basis of gender, which causes them to behave differently, which in turn creates so-called gender differences, which in turn prop up neurosexism — the epitome of circular logic and of a self-fulfilling prophecy. Neurosexism is a flawed belief that results from the intersection of neuroscience and sexism. This bias is largely caused by institutional and cultural forces, causing neuroscience (including neurobiology and neurology) researchers to make sexist assumptions about how brains, and therefore minds, work. It is deeply misplaced, but has nonetheless priovided a bedrock for sexism to gain superficial scientific validity in the eyes of many both within the scientific community and outside it . "Neurological sex" does not exist in reality. On the neural level of analysing cognition and the brain there is no gender. Gender is a self-concept as well as a social construct but not a neurological configuration.

“No this person is not right. He is wrong”, scientifically speaking.

But I am posting his video “ A tale of two brains” anyway and if you think he is right, please provide evidence.

And digest this: a man can’t work without a ‘female brain’** working beside ‘his’! Well, most of the time! That is why men keep going back to it.

:) :(

  • ** like mentioned in this video ( and this man is talking like a female brain and I am talking like a male brain - who is a man and who is a woman here? )

Now for your entertainment ....

Each person has his or her own equations to depend on to make decisions. If you give advice based on yours, it might not work for others. Your x need not be not my x, your y need not be my y and therefore, your x^{2}+y^{2}=z^{2} need not be my .x^{2}+y^{2}=z^{2} .

let me calculate my Z Square

using my formula ax+by+xy=Z Square

Thank you!

PS: This video didn’t make me laugh at all!
