 Denial of gender differences is part of the justification for the [[liberal]] position on issues including:

	The problem with the feminist view (or agenda) is that it assumes the truth of its own dogma. It simply asserts that gender differences are a social construct, but without supplying any proof of this. Worse, they refuse to consider any evidence in favor of innate differences. And so when it has been shown that there are gender differences in toy selection from the earliest ages of development, this is still somehow placed under subtle societal differences instead of innate makeup. Indeed, even male monkeys have shown the same quality.<ref>http://www.metafilter.com/47410/Boys-like-trucks-girl-like-dolls-the-SSSM-takes-another-hit</ref>		The problem with the feminist view (or agenda) is that it assumes the truth of its own dogma.

 '''Gender differences''' between men and women have been described throughout history.
-Not only are their physical bodies different, but there are significant character differences as well. This makes sense, because God made men and women "in his image" (Genesis 1:27) so as to reflect his divine nature. (Romans 1:20)
+Not only are our physical bodies different, but there are significant character differences as well. This makes sense, because God made men and women "in his image" (Genesis 1:27) so as to reflect his divine nature. (Romans 1:20)
 Many languages have adjectives to describe attributes thought of as characteristic to men ("masculine") or women ("feminine").
