Women are more empathetic than men.

I just really want to send a shout out to women in general for being the more loving, empathetic members of our species.  I know that's a generalization, but it's true and we all know it.  I see it all the time on various forums, threads on places like Facebook and X. 
Thank you, ladies!

    I believe it.  Last year, a friend of ours invited us to check out a new brewery/ restaurant in town.  Well, the beer was OK, but the food menu was 90% meat- and none of it poultry.  And the ration of men to women was about ten to one.  No, I won't be going back there again!

    I think being brought up by just my mum makes me and my brother more like women. In that way

    A boot?  Could be worse.  At least it's not a traffic cone!

    agree Brian. however, in my marriage it's reversed. my wife is wonderful, but she just doesn't "feel" like I do. it can be a flaw in both of us...

    Do you know I think I would agree with HFD my ex wife and my current wonderful partner of 10 years . They don't feel like I do. They both are nowhere near my level of empathy. Odd hey

    Kind of the same with me.  My wife is very loving and caring, but also pragmatic about a lot of things.  She often will say, "I need to work on being more empathetic."  But if you need something, she's right there.

    So three of us say something similar.  Interesting!  Three anomalies?                  

    I like what Lou Reed said in his song "Women"

    I love women, I think they're great
    they're a solace to the world in a terrible state
    They're a blessing to the eyes, a balm to soul
    what a nightmare to have no women in the world

    I love women
    I love women
    I love women
    we all love women

    I used to look at women in the magazines
    I know that it was sexist, but I was in my teens
    I was very bitter, all my sex was on the sly
    I couldn't keep my hands off women, and I won't till I die

    I love women
    ah, I love women
    we love women
    we all love women

    A woman's love can lift you up, and women can inspire
    I feel like buying flowers and hiring a celestial choir
    A choir of castratis to serenade my love
    they'd sing a little Bach for us and then we'd make love

    I love women
    I love women
    We all love women
    we love women
