1 |
Men and women behave differently in large part because their brains and senses are physically different. |
2 |
Women usually have more and thicker connections between the left and right hemispheres of the brain. |
3 |
Women, because of their superior cross-hemispheric wiring, tend to be good at multi-tasking. Unlike men, they can easily talk at the same time they listen, while also doing things with their hands. |
4 |
Men usually need to do one thing at a time; talking to a man while he performs an action usually throws him off. He usually has difficulty hearing at the same time he's talking. |
5 |
When a woman hears words, many different parts of the female brain activate. Words easily trigger women's emotions. |
6 |
When a man hears words, usually only his left hemisphere activates. Words usually trigger much less emotional response within men than women. |
7 |
Women are better at hearing high-pitched tones than men. Men tend to miss subtle vocal clues to a speaker's emotions. |
8 |
Men's brains tend to categorize and file away stressful thoughts. Women's brains do not; stressful thoughts will often echo and ricochet in their minds until relieved by talking about them to someone else. |
9 |
For a woman, the act of talking about a problem will tend to help reduce the stress associated with the problem. Often they want, literally, just to talk and be heard; they aren't seeking solutions from the listener. |
10 |
When men hear others' problems-- particularly women's problems--, they tend to believe they are being asked for solutions. |
11 |
Men tend to do their problem-solving internally, rather than verbalizing the process. |
12 |
Communicating to men, women gain credibility and authority by stating the results of their thought-processes-- their conclusions and decisions--, rather than describing the many steps leading up to those results. |
13 |
Men can interest and emotionally involve women by describing not only their conclusions and decisions, but the thoughts and feelings leading up to those conclusions and decisions. |
14 |
Men tend to use and enjoy language that is literal and direct, specifying those things that are wanted or unwanted. |
15 |
Women tend to use and enjoy language that is figurative and indirect, talking about one thing in terms of another and presenting suggestions in the form of questions or asides. |
16 |
Men have a specific brain location dedicated to finding direction; women have specific brain locations for speech. |
17 |
Women have superior peripheral vision, and can consciously see things from the corners of their eyes; men cannot, and usually must look directly at things to consciously see and evaluate them. |
18 |
Men detect salty and bitter tastes easily; women detect sweet tastes easily. |
19 |
A man's skin is far less sensitive than a woman's. |
20 |
After sex, a man's senses register nuance and detail more easily, and he can often feel and express emotion more easily. |
21 |
Women tend to test slightly higher in general intelligence than men. |
22 |
Women frequently use language figuratively, attempting to accurately express the intensity of their emotions; men tend to use less language, and use it with direct reference to things that can be seen and touched. |
23 |
Men usually prefer information presented concisely, accurately, and with a specific direction or conclusion; women often prefer open-ended dialogues that suggest possibilities and invite additional ideas. |
