It's interesting that you mention this. I definatly agree that there is a lot of truth to this statement. At least when teaching beginners. For example, I've found woman to be more open to learing the basics of shooting quicker then men. It seems that this might be because the guys have all played "cops and robbers"/"cowboys and indians" as kids, and thus have many misconceptions/bad habits when it comes to handling a firearm. Not to mention all the BS that is seen on TV and in the movies... A blank sheet is much easier to start with.
