Doesn't it make sense to see mapping your genome as a preventive measure that could avoid you health issues in the future, as well as your kids'?

If I recall correctly, Pinker mentions in "The Blank Slate" that there was a study in which women who were injected with a dose of testosterone had their 3d rotation abilities enhanced.

EDIT: excerpt from "The Blank Slate" pasted below. He mentions "androgens", not testosterone.

Over a broad range of values, the concentration of testosterone in the bloodstream doesn't matter. Some traits, such as spatial abilities, peak at moderate rather than high levels. The effects of testosterone depend on the number and distribution of receptors for the molecule, not just on its concentration. And one's psychological state can affect testosterone levels as well as the other way around. But there is a causal relation, albeit a complicated one. When women preparing for a sex-change operation are given androgens, they improve on tests of mental rotation and get worse on tests of verbal fluency.

Even though I like and support Warren Farrell's work, I have to say that cover makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

What about Camille Paglia?

If this is true, then OP should do it. Never mind that she seems like a good, religious girl. What happened to you is unfair and you must be compensated.
