DA

Actually AYRT is correct.

It's also been posited that the 'fix-it' mentality is very much a masculine communication style, while the initial reaction to just listen and let someone vent is a feminine communication style -- i.e. problem-solving vs. empathy.

Being a woman whose first instinct when someone complains or speaks to me about a problem is "Okay, so how do we fix this thing that's bothering you?" (and who, likewise, wouldn't discuss a problem with someone else in the first place unless I was looking for help) I'm not sure I hold much weight to that, but the different approaches to communication most definitely exist.

My mom is actually way more fixit in general than my dad. My dad just throws out advice to stuff in casual conversation, but when I actually go to him about a problem, he's much more likely to listen, commiserate, share stories of similar experiences, and offer advice (as in ask, "do you want advice?") if he has it without just spouting it off. My mom on the other hand cannot listen to me say "man I just feel rotten because reasons" without going "well why don't you XYZ then" which is a very annoying response.
