(75,480 posts)2. He may be right. Men may laugh more because they have more privilege
than women. Their wages aren't as low for one thing and that's something that would make me, a woman, smile more if I got the same wages a man did. Also, no one is legislating that probes be stuck up their bodies in order to get Viagra, or saying their employers can decide whether they can purchase condoms or not.

I can see how women might be less inclined to gaiety in his presence. Also, less inclined to be in his presence in general.
