> [@BrainGlutton](#): > > Why? Because based on your answers to my previous questions, the only possible way for women to be more thoughtful than men (on average) is in terms of being more “considerate”. So it is a good idea to define the key word we are dealing with before we deeply investigate whether women really are more considerate. It is important to know what your definition of “considerate” is, so that we can have an effective debate on that.
