Hi! I've tried to articulate a few places in replies that I do not believe this is a gendered issue. In another comment I wrote the following:
I believe indecision, conformity, and groupthink are behaviors that may be exhibited by any member of the species as secondary social strategies/behaviors to ensure survival by deferring power to another party.
My argument highlighted “women” being indecisive about dinner because I felt that the argument may come to a reasonable conclusion rather quickly.
Now, I realize it’s a relatively innocuous example of this phenomenon of indecision/agreeability (compared to the bystander effect, or how regular men became Nazis) and both stand by the example and wonder how to continue to write on the topic.
I appreciate your perspective on how this may be expressed more dramatically in other cultures! That wasn't something I'd considered initially!
