True, men have to work at being attentive to a woman's need to converse beyond a five min summation.
On it's face that may appear problematic, but it's because we are wired different and are more focused on bringing other (as I pointed to in the previous post) equally important elements into the relationship.
The difference provides God's intended balance for a healthy environment.
