I haven't read the whole book, either. But I did post excerpts I thought were relevant:

> Regarding favoritism, I hope I don't offend if I ask you about evolutionary psychology and gender differences. Do you think there may be some male-male competition at play at times? Or a tendency to want to protect females? Maybe especially traditionally feminine females? Totally unconscious of course.
> I guess what I was thinking of is that some people have speculated that Dr. Bob lets females get away with more than males. And there's a bit of debate about whether it's because, as a male, Dr. Bob doesn't always recognize agression in women (because it's sometimes displayed differently, certainly not always), or whether there are more primal forces at work.
