Differences and Similarities between Males and Females

Introduction

The purpose of this study is to expand the boundaries of our knowledge by exploring some relevant facts relating to our topic, i.e., the differences and similarities between males and females. In recent times, there has been talk of differences between the two sexes (male and female). Several publications have indicated how each works in different ways in order to find greater understanding and tolerance between both gender parties.

This paper is dedicated to examine where they are and how they are really the nuances of these differences, looking for ways and possibilities of using them as interesting individual complements and relational development. Several researchers have found similarities, however, they are traditionally undervalued because they are repressed or forgotten behind the conflicts caused by misused differences (Frolich, 2000). In the next section, we will examine the basic differences and similarities between males and females.

In the twentieth century, man still occupied this place of greater external influence, as the patriarchal era still prevailed (Pfaus, 1995).

With the passage of time, the woman became more present, and with appreciable speed and began to take place until then only positions that were occupied by men. Attitude and behavior of men and women is now focused in intimate relationships (whether in the family or in other situations). What is most striking is to see that in general men are very lonely, very fragile internally and with few resources to play, understand and integrate the deep pain that consumes their abilities and potential as human beings. The visibility in the outside world continues, but the waste of energy to maintain what is known, and to deny the obvious changes is generating an increasing imbalance, progressive psychosomatic symptoms. Many men share between them, but take their time with superficial conversations that do not actually touch anything personal and intimate, which in turn maintains and crystallizes the unconsciousness of self and other, from ...
