Insight into male thinking

7:49 pm Uncategorized

A genome paper provides interesting results and conclusions thus corroborating old assertions.

Results: Among the 17 tissues, the highest similarity in gene expression patterns was between human brain and testis, based on DDD and clustering analysis. Genes contributing to the similarity include ribosomal protein (RP) genes as well as genes involved in transcription, translation and cell division.

Conclusions: Present results provide evidence to support the proposal that human testis and brain share the highest similarity of gene expression patterns. The implications of the similarity regarding that both brain and testis contributed to human speciation are discussed.

    So, what are you saying, that both men and women think with their balls?

    The only woman I know with balls was Baroness Thatcher and the best person to answer your question would be Argentinian generals during the Falklands War.
