10 Things Every Woman Should Know About a Man's Brain | LiveScience

Most popular notions about the male brain are based on studies of men ages 18 to 22 — undergrads subjecting themselves to experiments for beer money or course credit. But a man's brain varies tremendously over his life span, quickly contradicting the image of the single-minded sex addict that circulates in mainstream consciousness.

From his wandering eye to his desire to mate for life, here's what you need to know about guys' minds.

I like this article, thanks for the link. Definitely consistent with what I know about myself and most of my male friends.

Wow !

Wowsers, in fact.

The clear hierarchy thing was revelatory. It succinctly explained the unhappiness I experienced in my last position. Here I was thinking that it was simply because the person to whom supervision was assigned (in the absence of the usual supervisor) was an under-qualified, surly oik; lacking in key personal qualities.

Not so, apparently. This had a lot of resonance with my experience.

As always, thank you Nightling.

The 'fix-it' region of the male brain and 'good-mommy' neurons. Somehow I missed these in neuroscience class.

It has been a year or two.....so those may be late-breaking cutting edge findings.
