"A Windfall Films production for Channel Four Television and the Discovery

Narrator: Robert Lindsay.
This two-part science documentary raises questions and explores the issues that
come from developments in science. Program one presents men and women as two
separate species with radically different evolutionary agendas. We reveal the
vast range of physiological differences between the sexes, in brain, brawn and
sexual desire. The film then takes the hormone-fuelled rocket journey to puberty
to show that many of the differences between the sexes are pre-programmed.
Throughout the programme behavioural experiments illustrate how the gap between
the sexes widens from birth to puberty. Program two starts with a bang - we
explore how men and women approach sex... emotionally, bio-mechanically and
practically. We ask why the sexes smell different, why women can{u0315}t hold
their drink and why men can{u0315}t ask for directions when they are lost. Does
the almighty testosterone really make men the stronger sex? We peek into the
brain of a middle-aged woman to discover what triggers menopause. Finally, we go
out on a date with a pack of silver-haired elderly ladies in Florida to discover
who really wins the battle of the sexes.

Details the 1965 case, in which Janet Reimer gave birth to twin boys, Bruce and
