Quotes by Cordelia Fine  (?)

“There is in fact a category of people who get unusually close to the truth about themselves and the world. Their self-perceptions are more balanced,they assign responsibility for success and failure more even-handedly, and their predictions for the future are more realistic. These people are living testimony to the dangers of self-knowledge. They are the clinically depressed.”
Cordelia Fine

“As has been long observed, men are people, but women are women.”
Cordelia Fine, Delusions of Gender: How Our Minds, Society, and Neurosexism Create Difference

“When the environment makes gender salient, there is a ripple effect on the mind. We start to think of ourselves in terms of our gender, and stereotypes and social expectations become more prominent in the mind. This can change self-perception, alter interests, debilitate or enhance ability, and trigger unintentional discrimination. In other words, the social context influences who you are, how you think and what you do.”
Cordelia Fine, Delusions of Gender: The Real Science Behind Sex Differences
