again, what you actually know is vastly eclipsed by what you think you know. i am a BSN holding CCRN licensed in Texas, North Carolina, New York, and California. i initially worked Med/Surg for a year before moving to ICU and ER for 1 and 2 years respectively before finally transitioning to OR. oh, and yes, i was an infantry medic for 2 tours. i took the MCAT in october of 2009, scoring a 31Q, but was denied admission to the Uniformed Services Health University because of an upcoming deployment. i have worked and lived beside doctors, nurses and surgeons for the past 7 years. i have forgotten more about medicine than you could possibly hope to know.
don't ever tell me who i am again. stick to what you know and leave google out of it. if i ever need a history lesson, you're the first person i'll go to you insufferable prick.
A nurse with an attitude problem is still a nurse.
Spouting a bunch of acronyms, or trying to pull the tough guy routine, is something basically ignorant people (especially military people) do to appear informed.
All the more so since the qualifications you're making reference to aren't relevant or impressive. A BSN is not an authoritative qualification regarding the topics in question. Endocrinology (whether it's steroids or sex hormones) is completely outside the experience of a field medic. The MCAT doesn't test on medicine, it tests on math, science, biology and critical thinking.
The only people who are permitted to use the "forgotten more than you can hope to know" zinger are doctors. You aren't a doctor. My father is a doctor. I spent 15 years of my life around him and his doctor chums and their medical knowledge and anecdotes. That doesn't qualify me to lecture on the advanced topics you're addressing any more than your own proximity to doctors.

it's a common theme throughout all mammals. males are sensory driven, using facts and logic to make determinations. females generally use gut feelings, impulse, and intuition to make determinations. i also never said one gender was superior. human females are weaker though, in several aspects.
Feminists use these sorts of arguments too, and your argument is flawed for the same reason, which is that there is almost nothing that holds consistently true across the enter order of mammals.
The higher mental functions you're referring to simply don't exist in other mammals. It's pretty much impossible to differentiate the gender of most mammals on the basis of behavior alone. The creatures most similar to humans in mental processes and critical thinking ability (and yet still way far off) are mice and dogs, and mental processes in those species manifest almost no sexual dimorphism.
In the same vein as Kay, the trends you identify in mental processes are correct, on average, in humans. I disagree with your overall misogyny and your unqualified scientific claims about human and animal biology, and that you turn valid generalizations into incorrect hard-and-fast rules.
In conclusion it is clear you have issues which are making you act out, and I think you need to do something about those issues.
