Grey's Anatomy Life Lessons

I have always loved the beginning and end of Grey's Anatomy where meredith talks. They usually have insightful thoughts so I thought i would start writing them down as I went through the seasons. I'm going to start at the first episode and just keep going :)

 

 

There are distinct differences between male and female brain. Female brains have a larger hippocampus which usually makes them better at the tension and memory. Male brains have a bigger parietal cortex which helps when fending off an attack. Male brains confront challenges differently then female brains. Women are hard wired to communicate with language, detail, empathy. Men? Not so much. It doesn’t mean we’re any less capable of emotion. We can talk about our feelings, it’s just that, most of the time, we really rather not.
…
“Be a man”, people say all the time but what does that even mean? Is it about strength? Is it about sacrifice? Is it about winning? Maybe it’s more simple than that. You have to know when not to man up. Sometimes it takes a real man to set his ego aside, admit defeat and simply start all over again.
