Women better at multi-tasking, says research
New research on male and female brains has been conducted recently at the University of Pennsylvania. It says that the greatest surprise was how much the finding supported old stereotypes, with men's brains apparently wired more for perception and coordinated actions; and women's social skills and memory, making them better equipped for multitasking. Because maps of neural circuitry showed that on average women's brains were highly connected across the right and left hemispheres, in contrast to men's brains where the connections were typically stronger between the front and back regions. The study also says that the left of the brain is more for logical thinking and the right of the brain is for more intuitive thinking. So if there's a task that involves doing both of those things, it would seem that women are hardwired to do these better.
So it is clear from this study that women are better at intuitive thinking and remembering things. When you talk, women are more emotionally involved; they will listen more.
However, still many people in our society believe that women are created as subordinate to men. I hope the findings of this study would help them understand that women are complementary, not subordinate to men.
