Almost the exact same socialization argument was used to justify saying woman are always bad at spatial cognition. Read it. Also, there are tons of people who believe that hormones and genetics--not just socialization--cause negative personality traits in men.

To say there isn't a huge cultural difference between how females are supposed to behave, what their limits are, and what they are capable of compared to males is a blind to the way society raises children. Learned behavior != biological nature.
