yeah, that's what I am getting as well, people angry that I would even suggest it.

It seems pretty obvious to me that there would have to be at least some natural gender roles if you look at some of the simple physiological differences between women and men.

Not angry, just not equipped with how to handle opposing evidence.
For instance, she would argue that the idea of Females being the primary caregiver to children is a cultural construct not a biological trait. I brought up the point that nature selected females to be the incubators of fetuses. Human females' bodies naturally care for children for nine months prior to birth. Wouldn't the biological fact that women are equipped with a uterus suggest that there is a biological tendency to become the primary caregiver?
To her credit, she was very willing to allow my point of view to be shared and she told me I ended up getting the highest grade in the class. Not ever professor is cool about you challenging them (even respectfully.)
