some thoughts / hypotheses
I have several theories / postulations!
1. people who have a happy childhood and feel loved when / since young, tend to be happier, less cynical and have an optimistic view of the world / life.
2. the happier people feel when they're with friends, the more afraid of solitude / loneliness they are.
3. girls tend to feel more at ease with (and maybe a greater need for?) physical contact, at least for the same gender.
4. girls tend to be more emotionally dependent than guys. Wait, this point is quite contentious. Or does it depend on personalities rather than gender?
5. girls tend to be better at expressing their feelings / emotions than guys, be it through speech, language, or behaviour. AND I'm not talking about expressing angst / anger / frustrations through the use of F words / pointing certain fingers, thank you very much :P (I know guys can do these very well)
So, what do you think of these points? Comments, please :)

I agree with your hypotheses, but I think 4 and 5 are more dependent on personalities than gender. Although you will find those traits more often in females than males. 5 may also be a social conformity since European guys are more touchy-feely to other guys.
Yeah I originally thought it was due to personality rather than gender but in that case, is the significantly higher percentage of those 'personalities' occurring in females a mere coincidence or is there some correlation? I believe it may be due to innate biological wiring that predisposes girls to these tendencies.
