  1. 15. My question is do you think mental and brain difference means that one of them is better or you believe that they are both humans and there is no difference between them?

    • Thanks for your question.
      Corrections: Mental and brain difference –> differences
      means –> mean because the subject is plural
      It’s crystal-clear that they are both humans.

  2. I agree with this statement. As the video says, women are taking care of everything more than men; as mothers, women have a lot of worries about their children so that there is a famous sentence about mother which says mother is the king of sadness. Women are the center of family, they have to manage the life and be careful about everything towards family members. With regard to their personality, women are more emotional and have breakable character. In the society they are more in danger than men and they should be more careful about themselves. Taking these factors in to account, we can say that women are more likely experience the feelings of sadness than men.

    • Thank you for your elaborate comment.
      Corrections:
      as mothers, women have a lot of worries about their children so that there is a famous sentence about mother which says mother is the king of sadness. ==> Women have so many worries about their children that there exists a famous maxim about mothers that says, “A mother is the king of sadness”.
      they have to manage the life ==> They have to manage life.
      have breakable character ==> breakable/fragile character traits
      Taking these factors in to account ==> taking these factors into account
      women are more likely experience the feelings of sadness than men. ==> Women are more likely to experience …
      THANK YOU.

    • Why do women show more emotion and honesty about what they feel in comparison to men? Is it because of the fact that they (women) are afraid of the consequences?

    • Excellent! That’s word of wisdom.
      It is exactly based on anthropological and sociological studies about mental differences between men and women. This Russian maxim is definitely based on well-established scientific facts between the two genders. Thank you.
