Will there be a change in a woman's preference on how a man should be?

[Philippus Flavius Homovallumus]

Reminds me of a study where there was a class full of children and they decided to split the class based on eye colour with blue eyes being better than brown eyes, then they observed the effects. Within the matter of hours, the divide between the pupils grew, with the blue eyed ones acting 'superior' over the brown eye ones. Differences in stereotypes began to form as well. So kids who had no idea of the differences suddenly became very aware and salient of them.

If you have a bunch of young children, males and females and have them together with no clear indication or differing treatment, they are virtually identical.

Yes, later on, hormones can play a big role in tempering with individuals emotions and feelings, so on the fundamental broad level, there is no clear dividing difference.

What about the study with the male and female chimpanzees, where the male children automatically played with the cars, and the females the dolls?

What about the case of the boy who had his penis burned off and was raised as a girl, which was a complete failure even prior to puberty, and he subsequently committed suicide?

Racism and sexism are not similar prejudices.

Gender is real.

Nothing at all like my life and several other people that I know. What are you basing that on?

Oh, you have girls who are outwardly "nerdy", certainly, and even ones who consider dungeon crawling in D&D Online a great date, but consider the example of "chick lit". How much of that stuff is fantasy with conplex underlying mythology, it's not just Twilight that's like that, there was True Blood too, any plenty of other examples. Look at the films targeted at teenagers and young women vs those targeted at young men.

Hell, look at the TV being produced these days, how much of the Sci-Fi/Fantasy strand is targeted at young women specifically?
