Study: Women consider likeability a factor in social and work interactions. Men don’t.

A new study suggests likeability is an important factor in interactions between women and interactions between women and men.

But?

For men, however, likeability is a nearly non-existent factor in interactions between men and somewhat important in interactions between men and women.

“Our results hint at the existence of a likeability factor that offers a novel perspective on gender differences in labor market outcomes,” said Leonie Gerhards, the lead author of a paper on the research, published in The Economic Journal. “While likeability matters for women in every one of their interactions, it matters for men only if they interact with the opposite sex.”

Yes, because we don't have to like each other, we want to work with the guys who can make us some goddamn money.

So fucking true. Women like to think they are sniff testers for who's a 'good person' and who's not and they do this right away because they know that, in reverse, if people 'like her' they don't have to be as competent.

It's always a social litmus test with women because that's their main domain of survival. Men don't have to 'like' the other guy. As long as the guy doesn't fuck with his shit we can get along just fine and we KNOW what we bring to the table.

I would say that men seek not much "likeability" as much as simply someone with good mannerisms. Essentially someone who's not a pain in the ass.

You've heard of the 'stereotype' of women entering a male dominated workplace and the drama impairs the workplace? There is actual research supporting this. Men can cooperate and maintain productivity even if the men do not like each other. But introducing a women fucks it up. I think it is because women create drama and selfish behavior which interferes with others, while men do not:

I (Don't) Like You! But Who Cares? Gender Differences in Same Sex and Mixed Sex Teams - male teams achieve high levels of cooperation irrespective of the level of mutual likability

Their likeability factor further depends on who they perceive as hot. In the end etiquette and being productive don't matter to them.

Because men don't work through feelings.
