If you're going to use the idea that your prejudices are rooted in scientifically verifiable truth, you'll have to at least cite some sources so that your claims can be critically analyzed.

I'm betting the best you'll be able to come up with are either speculative evo-psych papers, which are rarely if ever evidence based, or outdated studies. It's difficult if not impossible to control for cultural and societal influence when analyzing gendered behavior. I don't believe this will stop you though - you've decided your opinions are objective truth.
Not going to get involved as much as possible, but here's the links he posted:

Rather sketchy links to support his opinion IMO (very little in there that's directly related to this topic), but you can't argue with a sexist anymore than you can argue with a racist.
