Say what you may, women and men are not wired the same way. Women have been conditioned to honour their emotional needs while men have been conditioned to stifle theirs. In a way that is both a blessing and a curse. Men have higher suicidal rates because they are not given the space to process and feel all their emotions and women usually get too attached to men who aren't ready to meet them where they are.
Identifying this disconnect is important as women need to learn how to protect their hearts better as they navigate situationships and hookups. These noncommittal relationships usually have huge emotional strains on women, unlike men who disregard their emotional health by moving from one sexual partner to another to drown out losing the older one or to get over the disappointment of the previous one.
