Even when it comes to relationships . Do they have some personal chart of tallies to see who has the most cohones(balls) or wears the pants in the relationship ? Like when you have a disagreement . They can't admit that they were wrong .

Simply put, it's pride . An overload of that is an ego problem . Nobody likes their ego hurt, and losing can damage that . I agree with you, though . It's stupid not to admit you're wrong when you are and know it . Unfortunately, that can be the hardest thing that you can try to do most of the time .
Do you agree?

Question Asker Yes, I figured . How do you make them realize that they don't have to be competitive or worry about their pride in this relationship ? - 9 months ago
Answerer Let them feel comfortable with you . When they make a silly mistake, don't laugh at them . When you're wrong, admit it calmly as though you really trust them - they'll eventually pick up on that and maybe they'll trust you with their insecurity about being wrong and admitting it . Don't Lord it over them when they do admit they were wrong - just accept their confession and move on as though that's perfectly normal and fine . Basically, they need to feel totally at ease with you . Be supportive of him - 9 months ago
Question Asker Thank you, that helps a lot . - 9 months ago
Answerer Sure thing . Hope it works out well for you . Some guys are really tough nuts to crack open . They feel scared of being vulnerable, so if you can get them relaxed around you, this should come naturally . - 9 months ago

Do women like gender bias when it works in their favor?

Yes, treat us equal in every way, even if it causes us problems

No, we should get equality when we want it, but preferential treatment other times.
