Bingo.

Honestly at the risk of sounding misogynistic, I think this comes largely down to the inclusion of women in politics and upper echelons of society.

This is a trait that is far more common in women and I think a big part of the reason why single mother children tend not to fair as well. Men tend to be far more comfortable with telling eachother unpleasant truths and same goes for their children. Men are far less worried about being the bad guy when it's for the greater good. The closest women get to this is usually being a "mean bitch" however this is usually done only for personal gain not to be helpful to the person they are doing it to.

No that's fair. I think there's something else going on besides just women being meek. But I dunno what to call it.
