Answer 1

Answer: c. men avoid asking for directions because they want to keep a sense of control.

Explanation:

Most of the time men believe they need to be in control , be leaders and they hate something that may make them look like they are losing control .

They can not admit to the fact that it is possible and fine to not know something , that is a very difficult task for them to actual admit to not knowing.

Being out of control makes them feel like they will look weak to their partners so they will do whatever it takes to uphold their dignity .
