I think male and female brains are different, and I think we evolved to detect the gender of the other person and treat them differently based on that. We don't necessarily HAVE to, but it's our biological proclivity and it's difficult to overcome.

I want to add to this. A man talking to another man who happens to be his boss will sound very different than it would talking to a stranger. It’s all circumstantial.

Sure.

hmm interesting!

I'd like to hear more about this.

Is it biological or social conditioning?

I think the data indicates that there is a component of both, my vague remembering was that biological is a bigger factor

Hmm okay

Yep.
