Hi everyone! In this informative video, we explore the differences in how men and women process emotions, determining which gender ruminates more. In addition, we discuss how men and women handle conflict differently -- through either "fight or flight" or "tend and befriend." We identify societal expectations and the influence of the Patriarchy which defines gender-based responsibilities that damage sibling relationships. We touch upon another insidious factor in sibling estrangement -- partners who alienate one side of the family. Topics in upcoming episodes will include the differences between sister-to-sister and brother-to-sister estrangements and the effect of birth order on sibling relationships. We conclude by discussing possible exchanges with a sibling (if applicable) that can reduce conflict.
