Why are there differences in personality between males and females?
In: Biology
Personality is largely based on how you were raised, with some influence from genetics. This competing influence is commonly phrased as “nature vs nurture.” Obviously, there are genetic differences between males and females. On the nurture side, gender roles often influence how each sex is raised. These two influences tend to create different personalities.
That said, personalities vary wildly across humanity, regardless of sex. People are very complicated, and picking out a few isolated differences between people is often so reductive that it doesn’t give an accurate picture of the person.
