Wouldn't CC size and greater interconnectivity necessarily be correlated? If you have a series of wires, all approximately the same diameter, adding more connections would have to make the bundle bigger. The CC isn't a region that has connections, it's just the wiring that connects the two hemispheres. "We also attune ourselves to a wider perspective in thought processing, by responding to nuances in body language, tone of voice, and other non-verbal clues. Our brains are virtual superhighways of whole-thought processing!" I'm not even sure what this means, in a scientific sense. Are you saying men do not do this? That said, women do tend to have a massa intermedia more often than men. This is a commisure (axon bundles) that interconnect the left and right thalamuses, with an unknown function. I just want to advocate care with regards to making inferences about certain facts. Quite a few bloggers have been doing this lately with respect to neuroscience-related topics...
