Men are fine without knowing details of events, women desire to know it all. Not for gossip, but to understand better. For example, a man's friend and his girlfriend break up. The man wants to know if his friend is OK, so he asks "how are you taking it?" and if the response is not something really bad, we often end the discussion there. The friend will tell us more if and when he wants to. When the man comes home and tells his lady, she asks for details such as who broke it off, why, etc...then gets annoyed when the man has no idea. How could he be so insensitive to not ask? Neither is wrong, just different. He is not insensitive and she is not overly sensitive.

That is what was meant, imo.
