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.
Many women do have a larger social circle, and some men tend to have a smaller social circle.
But I don't think it's always like this. But that's just my opinion.
