Question

Why are women so caring and maternal to others, hormones and biological instinct?

Answer 1

Some are, some they don't.

Answer 2

Most are.

Hormones and instinct.

Answer 3

You just answered your own question; it's in the female gender's nature.

Of course, there are some who are less so (me) and some who are more so.

Answer 4

I thought we were all snarky b*****s? Or is that just the antifeminist view?

Answer 5

You are mistaken.. A women who is caring for her children can be rude to other children or step children...  God has made women's brain very complex so even they are not aware what are they doing or why they are doing...

Answer 6

yes that could be a part of it but not all women are that way , u can;t say that about the women who kill their babies , it has to do with their up bringing and the way they were treated , do unto others i think . when a woman has a baby its suppose to bring out the maternal instinct and they are to be more caring ,, look at the news . we had a woman kill and 18 yr old for her baby she was 9 months pregnant and the woman used duct tape on her arms and legs and cut the baby from her womb , just because she wanted a child , hormones had nothing to do with that she was jailed b 4 on kidnapping a child . thats insanity .

Answer 7

Biological instinct probably, but not all women are maternal, im not maternal anyway.

Men can be caring too, its not just a female trait, well i guess it depends on the person.
