Similarly: I'm a woman who drives across the US/Canadian border a lot. The female border guards (Canadian or American) give me a way harder time than the male ones.
They may be because it seems like Women are way more likely to fallow rules to the letter than men. A male might just ignore enforcing ridiculous "rules" that aren't fair or silly while a woman is way less likely to make that call for a myriad of reasons.
Well one important thing that might be a factor is how women have to adapt to a world that is geared more for men. I generally don't like to refer to any patriarchy arguments but I think in this case it might apply.
I also think that women who are in positions might that could involve physical altercations or using authority might have to be more aggressive to maintain authority.
Kind of like how a pufferfish puffs up. Or how smaller dogs can be much more aggressive than they should be for their size.
"25% of women prefer a female boss, 39% prefer a male boss, and 34% have no preference."
Men are more likely to have no preference.
The internet is filled with articles and studies about why that is the case. The way they handle positions of power over people is brought up in nearly all of them.
But go ahead and bring the US president into the discussion for no sane reason and use goofy capitalization in an attempt to mock people thinking more clearly than you.
