Riassunto

Gender Me Tenderly: Why Women Should Run the World explores bold new territory in the search for answers about gender differences.

Author Edwin R. Larson, MD, a psychiatrist with a lifelong passion for understanding what makes people tick, moves beyond the conventional wisdom about gender roles and behavior by heading into the sphere of evolutionary anthropology to unveil astounding discoveries about the nature of the male and female human animal.

Looking back to prehistoric times, Dr. Larson shows us it’s all about instincts. Humans, like all animals, obey their instincts, assuming they are naturally the correct way to behave.

There’s a reason why those instincts developed during the Pleistocene epoch, when giant-sized animals roamed the earth. The dangers of those times necessitated gender specialization that encouraged hunting skills in males and nurturing skills in females.

Although this analysis isn’t new, what distinguishes this pioneering work is its examination of how these instinctive skills have been misdirected over the past hundred thousand years, making the male-dominated approach to everything from social structures to the psychological sciences either incomplete or flat-out wrong.

Gender Me Tenderly calls for a correction that will put women’s instinctual talents to work for the betterment of society.
