I think the point was that women may dislike confrontation more often than men and even when someone does decide to confront another person, then typically women doing so are more likely than men to be confronting reluctantly or it make take a greater emotional or psychological toll than for the typical man.

(run on sentence, sorry. at least I have a small excuse: typing on a phone!)

I don't think anyone was claiming that women would never be confrontational and not that they would never make a strong statement when they did confront someone.
