Polarizing is actually a good term to describe men and women.

Men and women are very much polar opposites when it comes to thought.
And i really mean, polarized opposites.
Like positive and negative
egg and sperm.

A description i use sometimes is:
If men are a basketball, a woman is
take the basketball, cut a slit, and then turn it inside out.
(it looks like men and women experience the flow of universal energy, like upside-down/inside-out from each other)

And, i do not mean this polarization to be degrading, i mean it as understanding, accurately, what is there.

But in this era of "equality" pointing out sexual differences is almost verboten.

Of course, this polarization is what makes the opposite sex attractive (like magnets)
and creates the variety that is life on this planet.
