Question

Women are more likely than men to

a. criticize and insult their marital partner.
b. misperceive simple friendliness as a sexual come-on.
c. tend and befriend.
d. interrupt others while they are talking.
e. stare at people who make them angry.

Answer 1

Women are more likely than men to tend and befriend. Women on average are far less aggressive than men due to men's testosterone which could make them more approachable and easier to befriend. Women are also more adept at nurturing others so their tending ability should not come as a surprise.
