Hannah Gadsby, an Australian comedian, once commented that we tend to focus on the differences between men and women much more than the similarities.

So, if we wanted to talk about differences in stark terms, comparing men and women to zebras would yield far greater discrepancies.

Humans are the odd duck in the animal kingdom.

We evolved to have a combination of features that allowed us to prosper and thrive over time: being bipedal, having opposable thumbs, and of course our brain which expanded energy towards developing our reasoning and cognitive ability. However, when we dive into the anatomy of man we begin to see the trade offs as well as the detrimental attributes we accumulated.

Reporter: "President Trump, are you going to kill every man, woman and child in North Korea?"
