Do the men or the women you know travel more?

[WindowPhil]

In my experience, the women I know are more likely to travel than the men, and this is true in various ways.

* Study abroad (seems like there's 95 women to every 5 men who study abroad in general no matter the group, but this still holds true)

* Moving out of state (More of of my aunts and female cousins have moved out of Minnesota to various places, in comparison to my uncles and male cousins.)

* Vacation (Most men I know seem to take more local vacations. IE  hunting and fishing either in Minnesota or neighboring states. Whereas women I know tend to travel across the country or internationally.)

Why do men seem to travel less than women? Is it something cultural, or do I just live in a weird bubble?

I tend to notice that too. I have often been the only male member sometimes.

Do you think it's harder for men to travel?

(Whether because it's harder to take time off and there being more of an expectation to work, no male equivalent to the "strong independent women" and thus more guys trapped in family drama, or other reasons)

Or do you think as many men as women could if they wanted, they just choose not to?
