Tannen's "You Just Don't Understand". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You_Just_Don%27t_Understand

Key idea in the book is that a lot of argument and disagreement arises from mismatched social attitudes/communication between men & women, similar to how cross-cultural assumptions can cause offense.

Presents a model that (typically) men socialise with a focus more on competition, independence, and status, whereas (typically) woman socialise with a focus on cooperation, inter-dependence, and intimacy.

This is one of the big 5 personality traits (agreeableness).

I found that these cover most everything and the combinations are the most interesting and useful.

As I get older, I find that people closer to the middle across these traits are the ones I enjoy being around.

This helps me know what areas I can work on to be a more pleasant human being :)
