The Biology Of Why Men Isolate (Level 1)

Men and women experience compliments very differently. Women receive most of the compliments. Usually, people tell women they look nice. Men receive very few compliments. When men get a compliment, they remember it for a long time. People usually praise men for their good work. Why are men often lonely? Science gives us an answer. When women feel stressed, their bodies make a hormone that helps them make friends. This makes them feel better. But when men feel stressed, their bodies make different hormones. These hormones make men want to be alone and solve problems by themselves. Men and women face different problems. Many women get too much unwanted attention. This can make them feel unsafe. On the other hand, many men feel very lonely because it is hard for them to connect with others. We need to understand and help each other.
