I read the article in the Guardian today about the differences between male and female brains by Simon Baron-Cohen (as far as I know, he's no relation of Ali G). His hypothesis is that people have empathising qualities or systemising qualities. More women than men have a predominantly empathetic brain, and more men than women have a predominantly systemising brain. The basic idea isn't exactly new, but there was a test you could take online to see which kind of brain you have. In the name of scientific research — and curious about what I would find, since even I regard myself as a bit of an odd fish — I decided to give it a go.
