  He likes to win arguments / so maybe roughly 100% of humans? Not at all. Some humans "argue" or "debate" to understand the truth of an issue, rather than to "win." In "losing," I actually learn more. I see that as the difference between mathematicians (truth-seeking) and lawyers (win-seeking.)

    A number of other people don't like to argue at all, or if they argue it's only to make people they care about feel good. They usually just let their opponent win, although sometimes after putting up enough resistance to make their opponent think it was a good fight.

  i see that as more discussing and communicating than arguing.
