Are women the more to apologize?

Ya women are far too sensitive and sentimental,that is why they take less time to apologize than men do.They cannot take the burden of misunderstanding and guilt for longer time,that is why they give in . I am a woman too and i have experienced it many times.Men have egos and they are stubborn too.It takes a lot of guts to say sorry for them,so they hardly apologize.

I know i will give you the best answer and the most honest one on this, sweetie. Women have more brains than men and we have manners. TATA.

I could not answer this question though, I want to be fair... when I know it was my fault then I would do the apology right then....

Hi krupesh, Even without the report of the study we can observe that by nature women are less complicated and would not love to be in the complexity of events. Mostly they are easy going. But in contrast, men are not always so. They have more of ego problems and and wish to show their so called masculine superiority. Hence they are unlikely to apologize easily. But women are more peace loving and do seek apology even if the event is too trivial.

I think, the results of research that's a big mistake. In fact, women prefer to bury and saves her annoyance feelings than men. Because more like to saves their annoyance, women are more difficult to ask for or give forgiveness. Even, although women can give her sorry, it was only for a while time .. Once time you make a mistake, although a small mistake, his anger will explode with a fierce

To be honest i think maybe you are right. But men(especially me) i think have huge egos and wouldn't want anything wrong to come in their way. They consider themselves superior than women. I would plainly agree in this fact. Men usually make mistakes while women make accidents. There is a difference between the two. If a man betrays a woman than no one would ever trust him again but when a woman does the same she pleads so much that she automatically melts a man's heart. I am just stating my opinion on ladies that's all. No offense. Cheers!

oh, really. hehe sometimes i feel that too. hmm girls tend to say sorry more easily than a man - which may be because guys have their egos to protect and not to show any signs of weakness. :) but in a relationship if it is not my fault - i won't say sorry/

Funny ,second discussion I've seen on this in 5 minutes. I think women are just not as embarrassed to admit that they aren't perfect.

You may be right because generally men’s pride gets in the way of an apology although in our case my husband tends to be the one who is ready to say sorry whereas I am more likely to be stubborn and not ‘give in’! This goes to show that although females tend to put their pride aside and admit they’re wrong more often, there are exceptions to every rule!

maybe because they often do mistakes.it makes them aware that if they do some mistake they want to be apologize too. and they said women's heart is fragile and soft

that is a good question. I am not sure how true that is are not. I can say I do tend to say Im sorry to women more than men. I want to be sinitive to their fellings and so forth. I do say sorry to am man if there is some despute and I was the person who is wrong.

I do observe that women tend to be more apologetic than men. I think that the reason for that is because of the fact that woman are more taught to wear their feelings on their sleeves than men are. That said, a woman is more likely to realize when they've done something that is wrong and thus they are a lot quicker to apologize than a man is when they do something wrong. I really can't say anything deeper than that though.

In my personal experience I don't think they are no. I am a woman and I am very stubborn and I don't ever admit that I am wrong, so very rarely do I ever apologise. My husband on the other hand is always saying sorry for something or other that he has said or done. I just think that if you are going to say sorry then it has to be sincere and sorry also means that you won't do it again. Because of my stubborn way I would not be sincere in my apologies, so that's why I don't say sorry if I don't think I am wrong.

i agree with that, sometimes men forget any problem and think that "everything is okay, you dont need to apologize"

hi I know quite a few men who did apolgize but I think we females are taught at an early age to apologize if we did someone wrong and the lessons probably really took too. Also some men have huge egos and feel it beneath them to apologize but I really wonder if it does not come out pretty even if all the people in the world could bed quizzed as to whether or not they were as prone to apolgize as women are.we are always quick to say men are more apt to do such and such and women are more apt to do so and so, and yet many times the differences are not all that great.

I think that in general, women are more likely to apologize than men are, but I also feel that men can learn to apologize and will generally do so when they truly feel that they are in the wrong. I can remember a time when my husband refused to apologize at all. It took time and for him to realize that apologizing to me didn't mean he was weak, but sincere before he began to apologize when he would hurt my feelings. The downside to it has been that he now apologizes all of the time, but fails to show me through his actions that he truly is apologetic. That is something that I feel women do more than men.

While women may be more apologetic than men, it is a sign that we don't wish to fight over every little thing. That doesn't accomplish anything in the long run. It's also not a sign that we have more to apologize for. Many of the male species are too busy squbbling over the small things to really give it much thought.

From my experience, majority of the men I knew, were more stubborn to apologize. But I understand since I necessarily don't like to apologize myself, but of course, I still do. I have known a few men who do apologize a lot too. But over all, as a society and traditionally, men used to be dominant and that idea still lingers.

I remember Leonardo DiCaprio movie, which title I remember no more, he was being trained to replace the king his brother, but the was raised in a slum area, with no breading and proper education. Nevertheless, his manner was down to earth and apologetic, in one instance he made a mistake while mimicking a banquet, and he immediately apologized to the servant. However, his mentor stopped him and said: "A king must not apologize to his servants!" What is the connection? Well men by nature is considered king on his own environment like husbands to their respective homes. The design was carefully crafted by the Almighty way back Genesis or the creation of the world, man shall go to the world and multiply and subdue it, women are to submit before men as suitable partner and helper. That is their roles.

Women are more apologetic because they percieve more things as "wrong doings". Men don't actually apologize less, they just think that they make less mistakes. For example, if a man bumps into a woman by accident, she might think that requires an apology, but he does not. For percieved wrongdoings, men and women apologize the same amount. It's just that guys think they're right more of the time =)
