Hello my dear @maxabit

Thank you so much for leaving this most beautiful comment!

Let me just highlight here some of the things that you pointed out that I think are particularly important for the other readers too keep in mind:

It is worth pondering about the results of experiments conducted using animals and correlating the findings with human behavior and psychology.

This is very true indeed! :) And, in my opinion, this is also the very reason why it is so useful to study them - the fact that their societies are not as complex as ours! It is almost a paradox! :)

There are unmistakable biological traits that put humans into either category which are also observed and followed by children.

Learning from watching! And this is why I ask myself if the factor that weighs heavier in Camille seeing herself as a girl is the social/environmental one. Even more so when I come across studies such as the hypothalamic response to androstadienone.

Not that one determiner (biological, social or psychological) is more important than the other; and that is why I ended with the sentence you quoted here! You got it :D

Thank you my dear, for always showing so much regard for my work.
It feels very rewarding and motivating :)
