Thread Name: What is singing?
Subject: RE: BS: What is singing?
Ella, please go back and read my post a little more carefully, I must beg to differ with your interpretation. I do not say that men are better painters, or that women are better singers, in fact I state the contrary. I only said that men and women had different evolutionary pressures, which they did, as did any sex in any sexually dimorphic species. Otherwise the dimorphism would never have evolved. And men DO have nipples - nothing dated in that comment! There is ample paleoanthropological evidence that human society, back when the human species was speciating (which is what I was talking about), had divisions of labor by sex and age, as does any ape society (or birds, or anyone else). Nothing strange about that, either, is there?
