Male philosophers frequently speak as if the world of logic and abstraction is superior to the physical world of the body.

Question 7: What does Nel Noddings say about violent crime rates among men and women? (Points: 1) Men are inherently much more violent than women.

Women commit nearly as much crime as men; gender distinctions in this area are illusory.

All of our behaviors are innate, regardless of culture.
