It's Ok if you don't want to admit differences in gender. Many these days are very sensitive to the subject even to a fault. Falling on the sword to protect feelings, and be politically correct, are unfortunately the norm. But many clinical psychologists (who know a little something about personality) find a very lob-sided trend to support what sensitive folks call "stereotypes."
I know it's not a popular topic but gender differences are the leading factor that determines your personality. Then up-bringing etc...etc...I found this article very interesting on the subject!!

It is fine to have an opinion or be an exception to THE rule. But an informed opinion about how others see the world (outside of mainstream Marxist positions) is helpful in determining the "what & why" to your dating question certainly!!
