Girl Brain, Boy Brain—What's the Difference?


1) Bustling Brains 
Fact: Girls' brains have 15 to 20% more activity.
Male and female brains are wired differently. The male brain distributes its activity into less parts than the female brain. Different sections of the female brain can simultaneously work together in ways that the male brain cannot.


2) Feeling Fibers 
Fact: Females have more nerve fibers in their skin than males.
What does this mean? Males are less sensitive to pain than females. A boy's body and brain generally feels less pain at any given moment than a girl's.

3) Gray and White Matter: It Matters! 
Fact: Boys' brains have more gray matter, and girls' brains have more white matter.
Gray matter concentrates brain activity into a single area of the brain. White matter connects brain activity to different parts of the brain, including emotion centers.


4) On/Off Button 
Fact: Boys' brains enter into a rest state more often each day.
Boys and girls have different ways of paying attention, finishing tasks, relaxing, experiencing emotions and even talking to others.


5) Spatial Sernse 
Fact: Boys' brains have more neural centers in the right hemisphere (which is involved in spatial reasoning).
Males tend to relate to others by using objects (such as playing with balls, darts, paint guns and rocks)

6) Structural Separateness 
Fact: Since boys' and girls' brains are designed differently, boys and girls tend to behave differently.
Boys and girls process information in different parts of their brains. Boys tend to relate to others with more physical and aggressive activity.


7) Retaining Collections 
Fact: The hippocampus, the memory center of the brain, is more active in girls.
Females are more adept at remembering emotional and relational experiences. These recollections help girls to multitask in daily life.


8) Lobe Linkages 
Fact: Female brain lobes are more active. Memories and sensations are more connected to each other in a female brain. Girls are more apt to connect their experiences to feelings, memories and senses.
