Men's and women's brains react differently when helping others, study says

Are men and women’s brains hardwired differently when it comes to being generous to others? A small study looking at how men and women’s brains differ found neural evidence that females are more sharing-oriented than males. Researchers in Europe devised experiments to see how dopamine could influence behavior in men and women. Dopamine is the feel-good neurotransmitter located in our brain that controls communication and is released during happy times.
