Betty Friedan was right. Gloria Steinem was wrong.
My brilliant co-author Julie Coates keeps finding more research literature that confirms the neurological origin of gender behavior. Last week she cited research by Israeli scientists Reuwen and Anat Achiron that if you do a regular ultrasound examination when a woman is 26 weeks pregnant, you can distinguish a female brain from a male brain.
