What is the reason behind why people are constantly plagued with the question “Why don’t you understand me?” Why does it seem that talking across genders is comparable to talking across cultures, comparable to speaking…

both men and women are built the same way. Although some may believe in Man being on top, women can do anything a man can do. Over 1 billion years ago, sex evolved into single-cell organisms. One eukaryotic cell would come in contact with another eukaryotic cell and if that cell responded, they would open their nuclei and swap chromosomes. “Sex evolved because combining the DNA of two organisms promoted better genetic fitness than one organism’s DNA replicating itself over and over (a.k.a.,…

DNA also determines our sex and that is the biological femaleness and maleness and other sexual behaviors (Huffman, 2012, p. 390). It is also the determination of our chromosomes whether they are XY or XX (Huffman, 2012, p. 390). Moreover, gender is the psychological and…
