How Men and Women Are Coping In This Pandemic

​Both men and women alike have found themselves stuck at home because of COVID-19. Similar to other experiences, the two sexes report different behaviors in this pandemic, and the following are some highlights.

Things Missed During The Pandemic
Daily life routines have been completely overturned when asked what they miss the most in this pandemic.

1. Women are found to miss shopping in brick-and-mortar stores more than men.
2. Men, on the other hand, tend to miss entertainment activities like watching live sports and going to the movies.
3. Women miss having a set routine in their lives and being able to go out to visit friends and relatives.

How The Lockdown Is Being Enjoyed
Resiliency is a trait of the human population, and being in lockdown has not prevented Americans from having fun. Men and women are found to also have significant differences in their quarantine things-to-to.

1. Women are more likely to enjoy catching up on chores and other responsibilities than men.
2. They also spend their time developing hobbies like reading.
3. Men on the other hand value activities that require intimacy and close physical contact among the family members.
4. They also report enjoying telecommuting more than women.

Concerns That Arose
Everyone has been shaken up, in one way or another, by this pandemic, especially since it has stretched for months. Until now, scientists and front liners do not quite have a solution that will end the crisis once and for all. Men and women alike have their concerns, and there are also significant differences in this aspect.

1. Women are more concerned over getting essential and food supplies and risking contracting the disease when going out than men.
2. They are also observed to worry more about the facilities in local hospitals and over financial status during the pandemic.
3. Women are more likely to say they are lonely and are reported to have more anxiety than men. 
4. Men on the other hand report more positive views on relationships stating that these have improved since lockdown began.
