Shelley Taylor and her colleagues proposed that females are more likely to engage in a "tend and befriend" response to stress rather than the "fight or flight" response, which is more commonly associated with males. This suggests that females are less likely than males to respond to stress with aggression or fleeing, and more likely to seek social support and nurture others.
