She is able to love her man and her mom. Actually, in class I hadn't thought of the fact that a female can love both her mother and her man, but it makes sense. I think it has something to do with the way women create relationships.
Females have a web of relationships while men are more narrow.
It seems as though women go through many different friends throughout their lifetime. Men on the other hand tend to have long lasting friendships since childhood. I think this is because women and men have friends to fufill different needs. Women have friends for support and guidance, comfort and care. Men seem to have friends to hang out with when it is conveinient.
