I think women on average are more hypersensitive to everything, not just microaggressions and subtle signs of disrespect, it's a nervous system thing.. which also means that we have to be more mindful about self-regulation.
Giving people benefit of the doubt is really helpful in a lot of situations, but there needs to be a level of ballance there.. just exactly so as to not end up going nuclear.. :)
