Gender Stereotypes I Learned « Clarissa's Blog
In terms of my shamanistic studies, the capacity to retain visual information is precedes the capacity to verbalize. This implies that verbalization is a higher function that visualization, but also perhaps in some respects less fundamental to existence. Consequently, men might want to claim the more primary aspect for themselves as somehow representing depth. Certainly, this is the construct of gender one sees in Nietzsche’s philosophy. He argues that men do eventually gain the capacity to express intelligence, despite being more primal, because their primal energy drives them further than women in general. Women kind of reach intelligence, and then stop. They don’t have the deep undercurrents necessary to push them ahead.
Of course this all sounds very metaphysical, but I’ve given a different sort of analysis as to why this seemed to be the case to men from earlier eras, here:
