You must be thinking of the reason, but there is no such justification on this fact. There are many people who believe that women are active to keep connections between families or friends. For them birthday cards, holiday cards or get well cards are the best mean for staying connected. Apart from that, women seem to be more sentimental in comparison with men. Many women use these greetings cards to express their love and affection, and for them it seems to be “must be done” duty. Nowadays, women are as active as men are, and after a hard work, it might be not possible to write a letter. Instead of that sending the thank you cards or holiday cards happens to be a great way of expressing care. As I have told that women are very sentimental, but that does mean that men do not have any feelings. It can be said that men are not that much used to greetings cards.
