Answer1/
The question focused in this essay gains a certain importance as Deborah, to establish her point, floods the reader’s mind with experiences from her personal life. While narrating her experiences, she particularly stressed on the point that in her neighbourhood and family, no one was discriminated from the other on any grounds; instead everyone was equally treated alike. This democratically liberal stance of hers inspires her to think of the unconscious influence and practices which a young boy takes up and interestingly this is quite in contrast to the influences and practices inculcated by a girl.
Once a mother of two vibrant boys, Deborah interest lies precisely with the way her sons grew up, specifically her eldest son whose obsession with dinosaurs, admiring this beastly being, million times the size of man, aggressive and violent paved the way in which such aggressive stance of young boys differs from those of young girls. A friend of hers once reported that her friend’s son chopped away at a toast which symbolized, for the kid, a gun. To conclude, these apparent impacts on human psyche, aggressiveness for boys and tender for girls, to Deborah, creates a social order that secures the male dominance over females.

She draws personal experiences to communicate her point that boys and males, by instinct, are more aggressive than their female counterparts. Once a mother of two vibrant boys, Deborah interest lies precisely with the way her sons grew up, specifically her eldest son whose obsession with dinosaurs, admiring this beastly being, million times the size of man, aggressive and violent paved the way in which such aggressive stance of young boys differs from those of young girls. A friend of hers once reported that her friend’s son chopped away at a toast which symbolized, for the kid, a gun. To conclude, these apparent impacts on human psyche, aggressiveness for boys and tender for girls, to Deborah, creates a social order that secures the male dominance over females.
Though this seems a generalized statement, Deborah exemplifies through various statistical data that males are more prone to aggressive acts, committing heinous crimes all over the world, more specifically in American and Europe while the women stayed away from crime scenes. Distant as they are from the realm of criminality or daily demeanour, females are considered to be more gentle and tender compared to males.
Answer3/
As Deborah argues that testosterone present in us incites not only our bodily-function but dictates our general behaviour. According to her testosterone influences the psychological development of a being which leads to rowdy life, sex drive and timely or untimely excitements. She observes that male have a higher testosterone level compared to females and this explains their in-your-face attitude towards life.
This aspect when related to her former personal anecdotes-Once a mother of two vibrant boys, Deborah interest lies precisely with the way her sons grew up, specifically her eldest son whose obsession with dinosaurs, admiring this beastly being, million times the size of man, aggressive and violent paved the way in which such aggressive stance of young boys differs from those of young girls.

To conclude, these apparent impacts on human psyche, aggressiveness for boys and tender for girls, to Deborah, creates a social order that secures the male dominance over females-, as the article begins, strengthens her viewpoint which she tries to establish.

In fact, she takes her argument further by suggesting that testosterone level varies from man to man and woman to woman. A man has a higher testosterone level when his team wins. The testosterone level declines if his team loses. The same is applicable for women. Not only that. Male and female alike, who are employed in police and defence have higher testosterone charge than those of women and men involved in ministry and husbandry. Lifestyle choices matter for Deborah and she emphatically tries to establish this point. To add further is her personal anecdotes which she describes initially in the essay.
