Glenn Stanton Quotes

Unfortunately, it is assumed by many that if we say men and women are different, it means we are saying men and women are not equal. This is not the case. “Different” doesn’t mean superior or inferior. When we say sushi is different than Italian food, no one asks why we think one is better than the other. Both have their own unique and desirable strengths in their differences, and this makes them all the more valuable.

There is a male and a female brain just as sure as there are male and female genitalia. Scientist can easily determine a person’s sex with a brain scan...."The truth is that virtually every professional scientist and researcher into the subject has concluded that the brains of men and women are different....There has seldom been a greater divide between what intelligent, enlightened opinion presumes — that men and women have the same brain — and what sciences knows — that they do not."

Do male and female demonstrate different personalities in how they live, structure their lives, and interact with others?....evolutionary biologists have examined this question across more than fifty different cultures and determined that many gender-distinct qualities and characteristics are largely universal from culture to culture.... If gender differences are indeed merely socially constructed, as most elites assume, someone went to all cultures across the world and “constructed” the same things in males and females. The only one with such reach and influence is God. There might be something here in this truth.

If one is going to hold to a gender-construction theory of gender difference, or that male and female are only different in the bedroom or bathroom, it must be done either in ignorance or denial of a mountain of impressive anthropological, psychological, and neurological scientific research that reveals the opposite. It is actually personal and social androgyny that is the social construct, for it only exists within the rickety ideological scaffolding of gender studies theory. It must be built and sustained with great intention, ideological force, and political power....these inherent differences between male and female are why every society must intentionally invest in the effort of building boys into good men, encouraging them to become good, faithful husbands and fathers. Doing so makes for better men, and it provides for the better provisioning and protection of women and children. To deny there are significant and consequential differences in male and female is to deny the basic nature of humanity and how we fashion our common life together. This is true in both the family and the larger community. To pretend otherwise is to live in a make-believe world. To demand others live in it as well is deluded tyranny.
