Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research has shown that females are more likely to use friendly, ingratiating behavior compared to males. This may be due to social norms that encourage women to be more nurturing and cooperative, and to avoid aggression or conflict. High status individuals may not feel the need to engage in such behavior as they already have power and influence. Testosterone levels are not necessarily correlated with behavior towards others. Men talking to other men may be more likely to engage in competitive and status-seeking behavior rather than friendly behavior.
