He doesn’t care, she doesn’t know
In a study on the moral development of children conducted by the psychologist Carol Gilligan found that by the age of eight or nine, boys and girls learn to echo the social expectations placed upon them. Boys learn to hide that they care, while girls learn to say that they do not know. This is a process seemingly connected to separation from one’s surroundings — an understanding that there is a gap between the experience itself and what one can or should say about it.
