Women and Men: Men worry less, women care more?

There are many things that are gender related : men see things differently then
women and vice versa. The fact that women must go through some monthly
change means we are more apt to be emotional and more sensitive then men.
I believe we were made up to nurture and to nourish and men to provide and
govern.
Despite this fact, it's obvious that roles can be interchanged. Men can
be stay at home dads and women the provider and working. Both can work
and no one stay home with the little ones.
It is, however, within the make up of women to nuture and nourish and
thus they are more sensitive to the needs of others then a man would be.
While women worry and fret to no end when trying to complete something;
most men fret very little and easily sign off a project without worrying
excessively on whether it was done right.
I know from working with a partner in a business set up that he sees
from another side of the brain then I do. I will see that things need
to be taken as a whole and he will take things at face value and not
consider the long term results.
While I like watching sports and may enjoy a competitive game; it's obvious
that sports and competition are the stimuli for men. Men practically freak out
if you interrupt them during a ball game. They simply can't understand why women
would venture in our their tv time. Once men settle in on a program, whatever it
is, it's best you wait till that program is over to ask a question.
Women will leave a program to answer a question and surely I havent heard of
any women going into a rage when strike 3 is called in baseball.
What are your thoughts about the differences between male and female way of
seeing things?

I'm not so sure I agree with you that women were born to nuture, and men weren't. I think it comes down to society and how our childhood affects our thought process.
If you think about it, girls are given dolls and kitchen utensiles to play with, while boys get balls and trucks. Girls are being groomed for the responsability of taking care of others. Their toys are all designed to 'do' for other people, while the boys are simply encouraged to have fun. I think this carries over into adulthood.
Women have a harder time relaxing, because we have been taught from infancy that it is our destiny to be responsable, and to take care of everyone elses needs. The males, who were only encouraged to have fun, have a harder time being responsable because they never had to be. Do you see where I am going with this? I don't think any of this is inherent, I think it is secondary to our up bringing.

Well when you think of us physically ..our bodies are made to carry
babies for nine months.. and majoring in psychology..I know through
the studies that it's proven that we...men and women..think on different
sides of the brain more.. Men more on one side; women more on the other side.
