Women are offended by words, and men by an insolent tone

Women's mood drops as soon as men say the "wrong" word, while they get annoyed when their partners speak to them in a colder or impertinent tone.

This conclusion was reached by a team of Norwegian scientists who analyzed the causes of male-female conflicts.

Based on the results of the study, it turns out that ladies are sensitive to content, and guys to form.

- While the problem for girls is that their partners know how to be harsh with their words, men are more annoyed when they are cold, because they immediately interpret it as insolence. Members of the fairer sex, for example, get angry when they tell them that they hate to do something, and they turn up their noses if they order something or greet them without a smile. This shows how different the sexes are, how some prioritize the word, and others the way it is pronounced - explains team leader Ingrid Bjuri, reports Novosti.
