A gender gap is a difference between women and men, reflected in social, political, intellectual, cultural or economic achievements or attitudes and other aspects.
Firstly ,it has been demonstrated that men are developmentally ahead in spatial awareness. Men are more abstract , using kilometers/miles and cardinal directions, while women often base their directions on landmarks and left-right directions.
Secondly, the male brain is larger than the female’s, having about 4% more cells and weighing 100 grams more than female brains. In females, the region associated with language and social interaction is significantly larger than males, and located in both cerebral hemispheres, not just the left (as in males). While men exceed women at spatial navigation and geometry, women are exceeding at language even more.
Last but not least, the way friendships are maintained also differs between male and female. Men expect competition in companionship. They avoid communicating weakness as well as personal and emotional needs. For women there is little problems communicating weakness and vulnerability, even seeking out friendships during hardships. For this reason one could say that women are emotionally closer to their friends than men are.
