Answer:

Less ; more

Step-by-step explanation:

Currently, scientists never really found the main reason for this difference.

But in evolutionary perspective, this difference might be crucial for their survival during hunter gatherer era. Since on average women tend to be physically weaker, they overtime developed the ability to hear things from further away so they can detect threats way before the men do. Being more pain sensitive also serve the women well in survival since they also have less physical durability than the men do.
