ScienceDaily (Apr. 1, 2008) — It's not always politically correct to say so, but there are a few minor differences between the brains of men and women. The research of Adrianna Mendrek indicates a reversal of these differences in the brains of schizophrenics.

Symptoms of schizophrenia present themselves in a variety of different ways.  Some people with this disorder have a flat affect.  They exhibit very little emotional response to any emotional stimulus.  Any validity to the behavioral aspect is highly dependent on sampling methodology which the article doesn't address.  The article is correct about more developed brain structures related to women's brains.
