Now, there's nothing wrong with that. It's just a fact. And every man who has tried a case against a woman attorney knows it.They view things differently. And that gives them a different viewpoint on the witnesses, the evidence, the Jury - simply everything.
And perhaps that difference can be their most distinct advantage in a courtroom.
Learning to use that advantage may be the key.

The CLE conference is promoted as "Trial Skills from the Woman’s Perspective features a faculty of women trial lawyers and trial consultants who will not only teach you all aspects of litigation, but will teach you those skills in ways that make sense to you, have the look and feel that resonate with you, and allow you to use your unique skills and approach to your best advantage."
Although 360 Advocacy typically focuses on topics related to the plaintiff personal injury bar, we have attended similar PI trial skill conferences before and found the trial skills they teach are mostly universal and apply to most areas of law - the focus is often on trial skills and not just a single area of law.
If you can go, it's very likely worth your time and money. And if you aren't aware of the 360 Advocacy group, they have a lot of useful white papers, resources, and useful info.
