WOMEN are by far more complex...more...complicated.
Men have less emotions, and that is a given( by the text books.)
Emotions = complex.
Women and Men are totally different....mentally.
It doesn't mean women are not as smart, it means that both have a brain...but!
a man's brain processes with his far different to how a woman's does.
The book 'Men are from Mars and Women from Venus' has some good info.
Women have the family to care for...having babies...it is in their nature to be
more in touch with their feelings,emotions, and that makes them nurturers.
Men are mainly 'black & white' in their thoughts...they like things one way or the other.
It is a wonderful balance, and one compliments the other most of the time.
Once both sexes just accept that they are at totally different ends of the scale, is the first step to not trying to 'work it out too much'.
Acceptance & understanding is all that is needed.
You're selling men a bit short there! They do not have "less emotions" than women. They feel doubt, fear, shame and sadness etc. just as much as women do but many cultures expect them not to show their emotions as much. Not showing them doesn't mean they don't have them. Being forced to repress their emotions sometimes does men a lot of harm.
A man can certainly be as nurturing as a woman can, and frankly some women aren't particularly inclined to nurture children and there's nothing wrong with that. They don't have to have children, or stay home with their children if they have them, if they don't want to.
Don't confuse stereotyping with science.
Well I have spent 13 years inside of Men'sMaxium Secuirty Gaols, in Ministry.
I would never sell men short.
But I am quite well versed in what men think and feel, and it was ''my opinion''..
from talking and interacting with the guys, also I have had two husbands, I have three sons, and a only brother.I have also had a Father..and Step Father.
Now at nearly 60...my opinion was my life experience.
