<P> In the 19th century and to a lesser extent the 20th , it was thought that each side of the brain was associated with a specific gender : the left corresponding with masculinity and the right with femininity and each half could function independently . The right side of the brain was seen as the inferior and thought to be prominent in women , savages , children , criminals , and the insane . A prime example of this in fictional literature can be seen in Robert Louis Stevenson 's Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde . </P>
