Prescott, J.W. June 2016 Two Cultural Brains A synthesis of SSAD Theory that describes the dominant role that PAIN and PLEASURE have in shaping the developing brain (1. The sub-cortical emotional-social sexual brain; that is shaped primarily by the Matrilineal Cultures (Pleasure); and 2. the neocortical rational symbolic brain that is shaped primarily by the Patrilineal Cultures (Pain) that forms the Gender Equality Equation that exist throughout the World Cultures.

Ashley Montagu (1952). The Natural Superiority of Women
“Woman knows what true love is; let her not be tempted from her knowledge by false ideas that man has created for her to worship Woman must stand firm and be true to her own inner nature; to yield to the prevailing false conceptions of love, of unloving love, is to abdicate her great evolutionary mission to keep human beings true to themselves, to keep them from doing violence to their inner nature, to help them to realize their potentialities for being loving and cooperative. Were women to fail in this task, all hope for the future of humanity would depart from the world”.(p. 250)

“I have spent my entire adult life engaged in a quest to understand not just who I am but how creatures like me came to be. That humans evolved at all is a fluke.
“Great Ape mothers carry their infants wherever they go. Fathers, by comparison, are rarely in direct contact with babies” (p.205)
“…no wild monkey or ape mother has ever been observed to deliberately harm her own baby”(p.179).
“Like many humans today, I was reared quite differently from the primates I observed in the field. Unlike the mothers in every other ape species, my own mother had no interest in carrying me everywhere… (p.xii)

James W. Prescott, Ph.D.: OPINION. The challenge: achieve gender equality.
An essay devoted to the necessity of gender equality in the Congress, a necessary but insufficient condition for women to gain equality with men that has been denied by the theistic religions. It took over 144 years for women to gain the equal right to vote; it is now time to complete the remainder of the revolution: the equal right to representation in the Congress.

Human Rights Before Religious Rights
James W, Prescott, Ph.D. (11th Aug. 2012)
Germany is to be commended for its defense of Human Rights in that nation’s Court’s decision in Cologne, Germany on 7 May 2012 that found the act of circumcision on a Muslim boy constituted an act of bodily harm and a criminal act. The Austrian Province Vorarlberg agreed and has suspended religious circumcision, as has two hospitals in Zurich, Switzerland, which have also suspended religious circumcision pending judicial review that will determine whether International Law and Human Rights prevails over Religious Rights and practices, as the law of the land.
An essay has been written HUMAN RIGHTS BEORE RELIGIOUS RIGHTS that defends International Law and HUMAN RIGHTS over RELIGIOUS RIGHTS. This has been communicated to Chancellor Angela Merkel, Germany; Chancellor Werner Faymann, Austria and Federal Councilor Didier Burkhalter, Switzerland who are urged to support national and International Law above religious beliefs and practices as the law of the land.
