Where I get into trouble (in my head) is what to call those male/female brain differences. If masculine qualities include lack of tears, not reading directions, and a good head for mechanics, and yet are not confined or even really all that localized in biological men, why are we calling them masculine qualities? I "fail" at a lot of the feminine stuff, but lots of guys do it (motherhood, fashion, nurturing, what have you) much better and more naturally than I. Obviously, then, these can't be defined as "feminine" traits.

But is there another set of terms for it?
