Good news that we deserve 😌
for people who can’t watch the video: THE AMYGDALA CHANGES TRADITIONALLY FOUND IN MOTHERS SHOW UP IN ALL PRIMARY CAREGIVERS REGARDLESS OF SEX
Changes in this part of the brain were previously used to previously used to argue that women are the ideal primary caretakers of children in all cases. And apparently, it’s false. The reason they found these changes in women was that women were already the primary caretaker in almost all cases, not because there’s something inherent to women that makes them better parents.
this is big news for SAHF and single dads!
This is also big news for adoptive parents and queer couples! Many people try to argue that adoptive parents aren’t real parents because of biology and blah blah blah. Bigots will also argue this case against queer people. So, to all my traditionalists: it’s not science! It’s bigotry and sexist!
Any any any any ANY claim that insists “female” brains are fundamentally biologically different from “male” brains is ALWAYS bullshit. Every Fucking Time. If it hasn’t been debunked yet, it will be.
WE ARE ALL THE SAME ANIMAL.
