I don't think it's a genetic predisposition to memes. I believe it's mostly a product of social conditioning. Memes seem to vary from culture to culture as do the societal roles of the male and female.
There are differences in the adult female and adult male neurological systems. Typically males are suited to be more agressive while females have a fuller range of emotionality; however, both genders are capable of the same thought processes and emotions.
That said, I'm a full blooded female. I have all the qualities associated with my gender; I'm sensitive, caring, and compassionate. But I do not lack rationality. In fact, there are plenty of men in my life who are more wishywashy and likely to fall victim to religion than I am.
