  3. “The tape measures and weighing scales of the Victorian brain scientists have been supplanted by powerful neuroimaging technologies, but there is still a lesson to be learned from historical examples such as these. State-of-the-art brain scanners offer us unprecedented information about the structure and working of the brain. But don't forget that, once, wrapping a tape measure around the head was considered modern and sophisticated, and it's important not to fall into the same old traps. As we'll see in later chapters, although certain popular commentators make it seem effortlessly easy, the sheer complexity of the brain makes interpreting and understanding the meaning of any sex differences we find in the brain a very difficult task. But the first, and perhaps surprising, issue in sex differences research is that of knowing which differences are real and which, like the intially promising cephalic index, are flukes or spurious.” • ― Cordelia Fine, Delusions of Gender: How Our Minds, Society, and Neurosexism Create Difference

  7. “...if I have a daughter I will tell her she can do anything, and I will mean it, because I have no other intention of informing her otherwise. As my mother did with me, and my mother's mother before her, I shall simply hide the truth from her. I will tell her that despite what others may whisper, there is no difference between her and any boy. I will tell her to work her hardest and try her best. And that if one day she looks around and finds that, despite her very best efforts, lesser men have superseded her, then she probably could have done better. These words may not be true, nor will they be fair, but I would hope that they ensure she never becomes a victim of her own femininity. I hope she will be empowered to pick herself up, study harder, work longer, and exceed her own expectations. I don't want my daughter to break any glass ceilings. I'd rather she never even contemplated their existence. Because glass ceilings, closed doors, and boys clubs are notions, they're ideas, and they're not tangible. You can't see, touch, or feel them. They can only exercise power over us if we choose to believe in them. So why lay down your own gauntlet? The cliche rings true, if you reach for the moon, you might just land on the stars. Throw a glass ceiling into the works, and it can only get in the way. And I suspect that deep down, every woman who ever truly excelled thought exactly this way. I doubt they ever gave much thought to the fact that they are women. I think they just really wanted to rock out. And they did; louder, harder, and better than anyone else around them. And at some point down the line, enough people took note.” ― Amy Mowafi, Fe-mail 2

  11. Medical Writing, Editing & GrantsmanshipSex is Sex, Not Gender • September 8, 2007 at 4:23 pm · Filed under Biomedical Writing/Editing • I realized from a “discussion” I had with my supervisor that erroneous usage of the word “gender” in biomedical writing occurs at the highest levels. He wanted my grantsmanship opinion on a PI’s glossing over potential “gender differences in disease incidence”; I gave him my editorial opinion on his incorrect use of the term “gender”. Copying the relevant page from the AMA Manual of Style did not change his mind. He will continue to use the term “gender” haphazardly (despite, oddly, years of bench research in reproductive steroidogenesis), and I will continue to correct him on this. We’re both stubborn this way. But only I’m right. We’ll see how long I remain both right and employed. • Unfortunately, the AMA Manual of Style content is not available online. However, on p 25 of the J of the ADA Style Guide (which is based on the AMA Manual of Style), you will find clearly stated: • “gender vs sex: gender refers to the psychological/societal aspects of being male or female, sex specifically to the physical aspects. Do not interchange.” • As shown in this “crib sheet“, the APA Publication Manual confirms and elaborates on this very clear distinction: • Correct use of the terms “gender” and “sex” • The term “gender” refers to culture and should be used when referring to men and women as social groups, as in this example from the Publication Manual: “sexual orientation rather than gender accounted for most of the variance in the results; most gay men and lesbians were for it, most heterosexual men and women were against it” (APA, 2001, p. 63). • The term “sex” refers to biology and should be used when biological distinctions are emphasized, for example, “sex differences in hormone production.” • As an editor, I would of course add that nouns & pronouns can, depending on the language, have gender as well, though these are usually not studied in a biomedical setting. • Source: http://writedit.wordpress.com/2007/09/08/sex-is-sex-not-gender/
