Answer to Question 1

Answer: The main conclusions are that some small gender differences do exist, and humans are reasonably good at differentiating which differences are small and which are relatively larger. Cross and Markus say that we are so fascinated by gender differences because the male/female categorization is vivid and typically relevant.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The primary purpose was to show that seemingly abnormal behavior may not be all that different from seemingly normal behavior. Instead, it may simply be an exaggeration of normal behavior.
