RE: Gender Differences in Problem Solving
I think that part of this could be true but I think a lot of it has to do with physiological differences between the genders. Men tend to internalize because we have a passion for feeling adequate and showing our weaknesses can make us feel inadequate. On the contrary, I think woman like to feel like they are being listened to and appreciated. I agree this could be in part to how they are brought up but I also think its a common thing among the genders
Sure it is in us because of evolution, but the reaction of others to a man showing his "weakness" is also part of it. A male does not only feel Inadequate if he shows weaknesses, he is also seen by other as Inadequate. And maybe he is. Imagine if woman would tend to males who show theyr weakness, how far would we have come in evolution?
But talking and listening is key in any relationship and if there is true love, then there is always a way.
Have a good Day!
