Uh, yeah.

A groundbreaking study has revealed what we all have known for years: women talk more than men. Dr. Luann Brizendine (also known as "Captain Obvious" to her friends) has published the results of her study in a book entitled "The Female Brain". Some of the discoveries from the study (as described in the article):

• "…women talk almost three times as much as men, with the average woman chalking up 20,000 words in a day - 13,000 more than the average man."
• "…women devote more brain cells to talking than men."
• "Women have an eight-lane superhighway for processing emotion, while men have a small country road," said Dr Brizendine"
• "…what the male brain may lack in conversation and emotion, they more than make up with in their ability to think about sex. …to put it another way, men have an international airport for dealing with thoughts about sex, 'where women have an airfield nearby that lands small and private planes'."
• (perhaps the most interesting statement in the article) "Girls arrive already wired as girls, and boys arrive already wired as boys. Their brains are different by the time they're born, and their brains are what drive their impulses, values and their very reality. I know it is not politically correct to say this but I've been torn for years between my politics and what science is telling us."

Perhaps the only novelty of this study is that a scientist (and a self-proclaimed feminist at that) is willing to recognize and admit that her scientific endeavors are not completely sequestered from her politics/ideology. Maybe someday the Darwinists will be mature enough to make a similar statement.
