Final Answer :
The feminization of love identifies love with female styles of showing love: emotional expression and talking about feelings.It is problematic because it tends to downplay or ignore masculine styles of showing love: providing help,sharing activities,and sex.Couples may have conflicts over intimacy if both members do not recognize or give credit for how the other person shows love.
