Inequality among sexes in our modern society is a justifiable concern as women (as a group) are misrepresented in positions of power and earned wages, however, the innate differences between men and women explains how these differences happen and are reproduced; this knowledge should be applied by the modern feminist movement to more efficiently pursue socioeconomic equality.
From the day a person is born to the day the person dies, he/she is influenced by society; how to fit in, be successful, properly act, etc. This process is called socialization and it is the foremost reason that people in the same society behave the way they do. It dictates what behaviors are acceptable or taboo, is what allows for people to be classified into groups, and it also to a certain degree accountable for why men and women are different for reasons other than just their reproductive organs. The differences are obvious--men are more masculine and women are more feminine--and they seem to have the equally obvious cause of biological difference. However, this seemingly distinct conclusion does not factor in the idea that men and women are socially conditioned to have these traits. Feminism deems this conditioning to be the single reason these differences exist and that these constructed differences are what needs to be forgotten. But forgetting these differences is also forgetting what has made humans efficient reproducers and carriers of our race. How women being feminine and men being masculine contributes to this will be explained, but first, proof of these innate differences must be understood. .
Simon Baron-Cohen, professor of psychopathology at the University of Cambridge conducted an observational study of infants who had not yet been influenced by social factors to determine whether sexual dimorphism (differences in sexes other than sexual organs) was caused by biological or socio-cultural factors.
