Ok I'm late to the party but yeah I think it does actually seem like men are overconfident and more aggressive in conversation than women. For a long time I wasn't sure if it was just selection bias or being primed or something.
Mostly this comes after seeing a lot of men in CH very confidently say things that I think with a lot less confidence, and I'm like ??? I could have just said my thought louder and with less upward inflection and people would have listened to me more??
You look like the opposite! Quite confident, polite and someone who knows where she wants to be and of course to do. Men are more agressive in general. Yeap. It is the human being history.
Listen to any group of male friends interacting with each other, and count how many arguments they get into. Men argue with each other constantly, and often vigorously. But afterwards, nobody holds your positions against you.
Women are much different...
In the Navy Senior Enlisted Academy for leadership training I have watched a video explaning some of the differences between men and women negotiating strategies in groups. It was informative.
