Re: Bad Gender Science part 2058475: But women really ARE different than men!
[quote name="Zseni"][quote name="laudablepuss"]So you think women WERE NOT gathering berries. Maybe the men were? What the hell were the women doing, then?[/quote] Honestly, I don't know. I like to gather berries. But so does everyone else on the commune. More importantly, <i>red is not the color of high-calorie plant food.</i> This totally defeats their thesis (that women remember where vital plant food sources are.) It suggests that if women like red and pink because red and pink are the colors of berries, then women were <i>shitty gatherers</i>, passing over nuts, roots, and seeds in favor of mandrake berries. Red and pink ARE the colors of cut-open animals, tho. Maybe women are good at gathering because they want to have stuff to trade for meat, and a dude is more likely to swap steak for strawberries than for burdock[/quote]
