Men have power, women have solidarity. Other differences are related to their attitude and
values. Men and women who frequently communicate encounter many misunderstandings,
resulting in unhappiness, disappointment, and even hostility toward one another.

Strategies used by men and women in communication viewed by their communication styles,
attitudes, and linguistic strategies, as well as problems that occur because of differences.
