And so the interesting thread, gets more interesting.......
I think there is a danger to over generalise here. Not all women are X and all men are Y. Some women have [traditionally - by society standards] masculine traits and some men have [traditionally - by society standards] feminine traits. Whether it is blue for boys and pink for girls, society often expects us to conform to some standard that is universally set. By whom, no one knows as this was lost in the mists of time.
For example, pregnancy is not as simple as Amy describes. Some men really do care, whilst some women don't. It is simply too much of a general stereotyping to say all men are blah and all women do the opposite.
This plaza is proof, if proof was needed, that so-called mainstream thinking by society is neither the norm nor common.
I don't think we fully know how the other gender thinks unless we swap places. And even if we did, we might still think the same.
Daffy
