Women In general regardless of background tend to be more forgiving compared to that of men. You could say itโ€™s one of the strengths and often times downfall of womanhood.
 
If no man forgave all women would be divorced. Its a fact.

I know for us Somali, somali women go through a lot so you can give them benefit of the doubt. But for western farah living in developed country itโ€™s definitely us that forgives more
 
Question is pretty subjective, I think more time, men are more forgiving
:win:
Men donโ€™t forgive as much and I kind of rate them for it. Women stay more when cheated on, many women donโ€™t even leave the first time theyโ€™re beat up by a partner and the list goes on. Men most definitely have better boundaries than woman and men are much more likely to leave when theyโ€™re not getting what they want and need in a relationship whilst women can end up nagging for years before putting the towel in.

@Hmohamed54 thats also for Western relationships. Men are much more likely to engage in major dealbreakers like cheating, DV and drug abuse than women and still be forgiven.
 
I think downfall is an overreach.
Sure it makes them vulnerable but doesn't lead to the demise of the women.
Iโ€™m exaggerating a bit, but women do tend to put up with more in relationship that a self-respecting man would never. Thatโ€™s not to say that many men canโ€™t also be overly forgiving. Iโ€™m talking in general here and when looking it at from an individual perspective it is very subjective.

in regards to a woman and woman relationship (friends, family etc) women donโ€™t forgive as much

man and man relationship (friends, family): men tend to be more forgiving

Okay fair enough

Oh in that case I agree if your talking about that for the majority but varies depending on the dynamics of the relationship in each circumstance

I 100% agree. I was having a conversation about it with a friend as to how some women can be so forgiving towards a man that cheats on her but would cut off a friend for missing her birthday. Itโ€™s messed up. So in some regards women can be less forgiving but towards their own gender.

In saying that, male friendships however tend to be more low-maintenance whilst women tend to have friendships that are a lot more intense and the level of emotional investment is rather different. It still isnโ€™t an excuse for them to behave that way towards each other though.

Doesn't that just mean men value relationship with women more and have that intensity while women don't reach on average those same levels they do reach with there friends when it comes to there relationships with men?

It looks like women have higher standards and expectations for their female relationships then their romantic male ones and men have higher standards for romantic female ones and make friends are low maintenance

i think it makes sense if you understand men tend to not have the level of emotional connections to their friends compared to women and usually theyโ€™re only source of emotional communication is their partner which barely even scaratches the surface. a mistake or mess up from the womenโ€™s side would be the utmost breach and violation to the man

Women tend to have more intense relationships with their friends than men do with their friends. Hence they have higher expectations over their female friends than men do with their friends. Male friendships are a bit more low maintenance than women. Hence, a man isnโ€™t going to be too offended if his friend doesnโ€™t show up for something, as they tend to view things in a more laid back manner.

To add, Women in general tend to value relationships more than men whether it be friendships or marriage. I might sound bias here but many papers show that women are more people oriented whilst men whilst men are more thing oriented. It might be the reason why women do better in healthcare in which theyโ€™re around people whilst men tend to be better in STEM subjects that focuses on creating things.

Females, on average, score higher than males on people orientation, while males, on average, score higher than females on things orientation.

Yep and I think socialization plays a role and the fact that a woman wouldnโ€™t be able to up and leave a man the way she can a friend as if sheโ€™s married with kids it will impact her children and the fact in very recent history women were 100% reliant on men and I think a lot of the views of women enduring is learnt behavior weโ€™ve seen from the older gen that women have picked up on.

That I agree. Example, If a man is ill or in dire need, usually the first person heโ€™ll turn to is his wife, whilst a womanโ€™s friends especially in community oriented ones like Somalis, the friends would come over whilst the husband is at work and would cook and clean and take the wife to the hospital. I remember as a kid my mumโ€™s friend would always be around whenever something big happened or mum needed that extra help.

Then why are women more forgiving with men then if not the fact that they value the relationship with men less then with there freinds. Isn't a relationship with a man from a woman's perspective like a low maintenance relationship between guys hence why they are forgiving?

Who do you think values the other side more and why?

I think men value women more then women value men overall

My theory:

Women especially in committed relationships lose out more upon not forgiving and leaving. Kids, loss of lifestyle, societal pressure.

Losing a friendship doesnโ€™t cause a broken house for kids, less money and family disappointment. They only lose out emotionally if they decide to cut off a friend.

Also, the world is changing but attitudes arenโ€™t going to change over night. Women whilst having it a lot easier to leave a relationship compared to their mother or grandmothers gen have still been raised with the mentality of the older gen hence why theyโ€™re still a lot more forgiving towards men than towards their friends. But as times go by women will also be a lot less forgiving towards men. I think thatโ€™s what redpillers are noticing.
Who do you think values the other side more and why?

I think men value women more then women value men overall
I think historically due to women not being independent and having to rely on for survival and in many cultures women would be blamed for the demise of the relationship, I think women valued men. A whole lot more and itโ€™s on that basis that relationships were based on.

Now, in todays modern world I think they value each other equally but Iโ€™m seeing as times go by many women are becoming less relationship oriented. So I can see why youโ€™d think men value women more. But I do think men value what they get out of a marriage more vs what women think they get.
