It doesn't matter whether it's women or men. There's no generality here. It's decided on a case by case approach.
I mean do we trust women while taking important decisions. Like if President of a country is woman or CEO. Why can't we trust women?
I trust my wife. In my own opinion, any woman that exhibits trustworthy characters like my wife shuld be trusted.
Why did this discussion turn to love and trust. The reason is how the world sees women. So I want opinions from women. I know women are for child bearing bullshit on this planet. I want to know why as women we do not trust women?
Yes, indeed! There are some significant women in our lives whom we trust and believe in.
I asked my wife and she said no (note: I trusted her in many things and she does the same)
Hi,
The opposite sex trusts women who are related to them by blood, and if they are positive thinkers - by the institution of marriage.
The reasoning is that such women hold or have earned men's trust and are not going to purposefully hurt/ work against them. They are on the same life team, so to speak.
When a woman-woman relationship is concerned, it seems as if the same applies to close blood relatives only.
Many women distrust other women, perhaps through evolution-based competition for resources, belief that they know what another woman thinks or does, or simply - fear of becoming a forgone conclusion compared to the perceived strengths of other women.
Personally, I do not have issues with other women, except on actions driven by humanistic or ethical grounds.
I form an opinion of people (regardless of sex), based on their performance towards themselves and others.
In terms of executive duties and responsibilities, I believe some women's perspectives (even though they may not occupy presidential/ CEO positions) should always be taken into consideration, as women notice different aspects of an issue and are often more supportive of practical, non-standard solutions with fewer negative consequences on human relationships.
Women also have alternative views geared towards mid- to long-term prosperity/ profitability.
Whether some women express them or not, is an entirely different matter.

Having confidence in another person, winning or losing is based on a very personal relationship with another person. If this person is of the opposite sex, sexual attractiveness (or feelings of competition, negatively) are also part of the relationship. Distrust can endanger this relationship. Some people quickly become suspicious, even in the sense of jealousy, others have this problem less. One can very quickly check whether there is trust between man and woman.
Confidence is fully present when one
(a) can look himself in the eye of the other with a clear conscience,
b) is willing to talk about everything you have experienced during the day (otherwise taboo zones of common silence on important topics will arise)
c) spontaneously feels the need to touch the other person lovingly or to surprise them with a little attention.
d) ikes the usual rites of parting, such as hugging or kissing (this is usually the case in Europe).
Trust is an issue when women are treated as objects not beings capable of thought, needs and complexity. If a woman betrays a man with another man, maybe her needs are not being met. Women should be atunomous and men understand a woman's right to be so.
We can trust a trustworthy woman. No issue of trusting someone who is loyal and dedicated.
Why do we ask the question for women? In my opinion, this question was to be asked for people (without gender discrimination).
It doesn't matter whether it's women or men. There's no generality here. It's decided on a case by case approach.
If you find gender discrimination in everything then I am afraid I would say why isn't The richest woman on earth..., why isn't the most powerful woman on earth not a joke, why do you have a corporate world wherein women leave offices early. I belong to a country wherein rape victims do not hold Or can't be CEOs.... I prefer women over men....
Trust is a difficult question. Trust issue is a common problem for man with regards to man, and for man with regards to woman the complications are even more complicated. One major issue is sexual attraction between man and woman, another issue how much space is there for a trusting relationship. In general, the answer is No.
Okay, simply put, I trust my wife, but any other lady, I am sorry. No!
I know for sure, my wife does not trust any other lady only except her own mother. Why so? I think there is issues of bitter competition among women themselves except only direct blood, such as mother and sisters. Women know other women way too well to trust, I understand.
No this is not fb. This is a place where existing research is copied and links pasted. Nobody researches here. People play recommend recommend here. Now new insight is welcome here.....
How can we not trust women, namely mother, sister, wife, and daughter.
Within the family, problem of love and trust does not arise. Bit of bother if the person is outside the family.
We trust women, in the same way that we can trust men. In making an important decision, I believe that the criteria, capacity or knowledge required are gender independent. Another thing is the small number of women that may exist in certain decision-making bodies, but this fact has a different motivation than whether or not women can be trusted. There are many examples throughout the history of women who made very important decisions and also, although not visibly for the society they had to live, that had a very significant influence on decision-making in transcendental matters.
I do not think trust should be related to gender. The right question is - Should we trust people?
Nothing. I just do not think that we could generalize when we discuss the topic. We are individuals and depends on a person, not on the gender. However, I am expressing my opinion.
Hi,
Why is it only about women? Men are worse too !!! Ive seen the most trustworhty ladies and complete traitors in men too!!! But, yeah I have a point, as far as Ive observed, a man-man stay in good terms, a man-woman can have a good relationship, but a woman-woman don't last longer; they have ego, jealousy, cunningness etc., playing a special role. This is my modest opinion.

Hello
In my opinion as a professor it is very bad question, I am women, my mother too and there is a sad point I am from Spain where we have have different culture
Please try to be seriously about your question no everybody think as you
Ingrid
According to anecdotal evidence, a lot of women don't trust other women.
You must elaborate on your question. This question, in current form, is vague and lacks clarity and details.
Why are you not expecting opinions from men? Hope you know what majority do.
Rumani Dey , but here it seems you don't trust men. In psychology, this is called Projection of unconscious motives. The logic of projection goes like this (as an example):
"I don't like myself", and therefore I am scared of getting rejected by men because of some of my deficits. Hence, "I don't trust men".
To prevent the feelings of rejection and the pain of this rejection, I project my perception/ belief onto men by assuming that "Men don't like me".
This causes anger in me that why they don't like me. Jealousy comes into the picture then, because if the man does not like me, then he will like some other women. So I doubt intentions of men due to this competition. Hence, "I do not trust men."
Now to win the affection of men, I will compete with other women. But I will hide this secret motive so that other women may not take benefit of this knowledge of my motives by competing more successfully. This makes me constantly scared of getting caught by men to have this secret motive. Hence, I conclude that "men don't trust women".
There may be different versions of these sequences of unconscious motives and feelings in different people. This logical sequence remains hidden in the unconscious and we only are aware of the final conclusion that "Men don't trust women". It all starts by a feeling self-dislike and reaches a conclusion by projection on the object of desire i.e. men.
@Tarun statistics shows Indian men are more prone to being against women and inducing domestic violence. You could not tolerate my one sentence, what trust you have in women is understood. Anyways the attire we women wear we can't become astronauts in that attire. Trust means trusting a woman as researcher. Having her own research not working for man's invention.
When I asked this question it was clearly for women to answer. Few men replied still. If you can't abide by one rule set by women it clearly proves that you have no respect, no trust in women. Sad reality...
Rumani Dey , asking only women to answer a question on RG is an extreme form of anger and hatred for men. Strong bias towards men. "I expect opinions from women on this.", this statement no where implies you are seeking answers ONLY from women. That's why I said, you should be more clear.
Kindly heal yourself, you seem to have been effected badly by few men around you in your workplace or elsewhere who discriminated against you on gender basis. Or probably you are taking certain things just too seriously. Get well soon, dear !!!
I don't hate men. Just that I get angry when I remember the man I divorced could cook nothing better than scrambled egg. There are great men also in society. Like my bus driver who is always punctual. I have respect for men like this. Rest are burden on earth. Like I am a burden to Indian society cause I don't have a husband.
Please don't let your personal experiences disturb you and bias your argument here. Consult a therapist in case you feel so.
Well my question was why don't we have women as Nobel laureates in physics... You guys got into gender bias and all. Simple question why don't we trust women as researchers? Stick to that, OK.
ohfoooo, that's just too unprofessional way of asking a question. Anyways, thanks for clarifying. You must understand that since people are answering the question in one way, that means your question sounds that way. After all, why all people would understand the same thing.
It's not the fault of people answering this, but of your amateur way of putting this question.
World doesn't change for women... That's why you guys didn't get it. The eyes with which you see women need to change.. You won't find this question ever again neither from any man nor any woman...
Anyways, I must answer your actual intended question now .
why don't we trust women as researchers?
Women are proving themselves in researches. This difference between sexes is less evident today. Journals are filled with researches which have women authors. But that's also true, that such biases exist in society like you mentioned and in academia too. One of the reasons might be the gender roles that both sexes take up as they grow. Women who are married and have children, tend to give priorities to their families than their work. They struggle with prioritizing between work and home. Research requires constant dedication in reading and writing literature. Experimentation requires deep thinking and analytical work which is possible when one is free of household and other duties. Men tend to focus on researches because they are relatively free of everyday chores of home and other things. Hence, they are able to produce great works of intellectual worth. Changing societal expectations about division of labor at homes can alter the picture.
I remember a tip from my mother: ... "If you have to lie, do it for something important. Don't lie for nonsense." I don't know how to lie well ... There is a whole study of body postures, there are cameras at airports for example to detect the lies of those who want to enter a country to work without permission ... etc. To lie you have to have serious training ... but it is not worth it.
In the world of research lying won't help. It's the world of knowledge. No researcher can lie. Knowledge itself is an intelligent institution. Do you mean women aren't studying earnestly? They are, but maybe when a woman suffers we don't let her grow through that suffering. There is always a man who will love her. But men suffer and we don't care. Maybe that's the reason why men have won the race.
Am in line with Len Leonid Mizrah
Personally speaking about trust, my confidence is much more in women, dear Rumani Dey . The reason for this attitude is grounded in the female nature of caring and sharing.
We women don't trust women also. Will I sit in a crowded bus driven by a lady driver in a city in India? I don't think so. We have also become dependent on men. It's the man's world we got habituated to.
Women are good drivers if we trust them. I have seen so many skilled women drivers and so many unskilled men drivers. So I believe driving skill is not much gender-based as is believed. We need to trust women. If women do not trust women in such matters, there is a serious problem here.
Rumani Dey When women don't trust other women it is often in the context of competition in the workplace or in social contexts involving status, dating, and other forms of competition. This is different from trusting women when they are providing professional services (doctor, lawyer, busdriver). The smoothest bus ride in stop-and-go urban traffic I ever had on my route was from a woman, who shifted gears and worked the clutch far better than any of the other all male drivers on that route. I would also say I'm often more inclined to trust female politicians, although I must sadly acknowledge that Aung San Suu Kyi has turned out to be a disappointment.
Human dignity responsible for inherent protection of human life and civil liberty regulated by 'Self' via
1. Self Regulation

5. Self Reliance
Therefore, Gender Equality for equal opportunities and leadership at workplace, market place along with community building activities is promoted globally.
Gender diversity with respect to human nature is real responsible for syntropic propagation of human race therefore effective balance of AI, IQ and EQ reinforces efficient intelligence with person in digital era
I believe or do not believe people. This does not correlate with gender, but with honesty, or professionalism. I have too much communication experience to take into account the only factor. Although, some people consider it necessary to demonstrate belonging to an archetype at the first acquaintance. This often raises doubts, sometimes related to gender.
It's true that only because of few experiences we averse the gender as a whole. But nowadays men speak up for themselves. Men are growing less tolerant towards getting victimized due to mistakes committed by others.nothing changed for women though. Men don't like intolerant women.
women share in the harvest with men. Men and wo_men are co-workers. There is a men in every wo_men and similarly for every wo_men you can find a men.
Very important and impressive query that provoked several valuable and challenging comments from our RG colleagues
Women are the beautiful creation of God. They always remain with us as mother, sister, daughter, friend and a life partner. We must trust them for beautiful and happy life.
It's easy to say about the equality but they sacrife greater as compare to men because of society mentality.
With regards.
I think the women should participate about this discussion more because they can share about the real challenges and about the sacrifices. What type of situations they are facing in a real life, thereafter we can see how much the society trust on them.
Regards.
If u trust your mother, sister, wife then so trust on other women also....however trust is coming itself like a natural rain from sky heaven....its not like trusting or not trusting women ...its natural thing.
