The study discusses the gender bias in moral typecasting, which is the tendency to classify people as either the perpetrator or the victim. The study examined the bias in placing men and women in these categories and explored men's suffering and people's response to it.
Research suggests that people are biased towards blaming men and sympathizing with women due to innate evolutionary traits meant to protect women, but this can create issues in recognizing and acknowledging men's suffering in modern times.
A study conducted by an unconfirmed source found that women tend to show more favoritism towards other women, which could be rooted in evolutionary history as a way to recruit female allies for survival.
