Which of the following is NOT a FMV characteristic attributed to men?

• A. Taller than women
• B. Facial hair
• C. Shorter than women
• D. Interaction with other men

Answer: (C)

The idea being tested is how male-typical traits show up in general patterns shaped by biology and social behavior. On average, men tend to be taller than women due to sexual dimorphism, and facial hair is a well-known male trait driven by hormones like testosterone. Interacting with other men is also a common social pattern observed in many contexts. Being shorter than women, however, does not fit the common pattern for men, since the typical expectation is that men are taller on average. So the statement that a man is shorter than a woman is not a characteristic usually attributed to men.
