Warriors and worriers
Book • 2014
In 'Warriors and Worriers: The Survival of the Sexes', Joyce F. Benenson presents a novel theory on sex differences based on decades of research with children and primates.
The book challenges traditional views by suggesting that men are more sociable and women are more competitive, as they form distinct social worlds to ensure survival.
Benenson's theory highlights how human males cooperate in groups to deter enemies, while females exclude others to secure mates and protect their families.
