Professor Rick says:'' Men and women are generally different in form and manner, besides the feelings and the extent of excitements...
Jina Lambrouz says: ''What make a woman to take a decision are her cordial emotions and not her intellectual preliminaries. Jina Lambrouz, Woman's Soul, vol. l, pp. 19- 20.
Anyway, the speed of getting excited in a woman compared to a man is a mental difference between them which has effects on the women's reactions and decisions.
Thus, Imam Ali (AS) has highlighted this mental difference and has recommended:
''Don't stimulate the women's feelings and emotions even if they offend your honors and reputations.''
The stimulation of women's feelings and emotions may make them perform actions against the intellect and law and show unreasonable reactions because the speed of excitements makes her intellectual and sensual faculties weak and this weakness has a great effect on the women's actions and decisions. Thus, Imam Ali (AS) has recommended not to make women so much excited that can lead to unreasonable behaviors.
One of the other mental differences that exist between man and woman relates to excitements, and psychologists believe that women will be excited faster than men. Thus, their reactions towards events and happenings are different.
M.S. Lamber says: ''In a woman the reasoning faculty is imperfect since her powerful emotions amuses her deceitfully. Though women are clever and can perceive things fast, their minds have no connection and adherence in social matters.Dr. Mahmud Behzad, Theory, Perfection and Psychology, p. 128.
In general pure reason, mathematics, and pure theoretical intellects are more active in men than women, but practical intellect which relates to human perfection and progress is equal in men and women.see ' Allamah Muhammad Taqi Ja ' fari, sharh Nahj al- Balaghah.
