Now use a sentence to describe the 1^st difference. For example, “…men tend to prefer…”
Develop this 1^st difference with a simple linking word:

Especially

Particularly
In fact
Such as
For example
Specifically


Now use your 1^st comparative linking structure:

Whereas on the other hand…

On the contrary…
Though quite the opposite…


Now add your next sentence. For example, “…women generally more keen on…”
Develop the 2^nd part of the 1^st difference with a simple linking word:

Especially

Particularly
In fact
Such as
For example
Specifically


So you have described one difference. Now you need to introduce a 2^nd difference.
Begin with a linking word:

In addition…

Additionally…
As well as this…
On top of this…
Moreover…
After that…


Say there is another important difference.

… a 2^nd key distinction would be that…

… a subsequent contrast could be that…
… a further distinction might be that…


Now describe the 2^nd difference. For example, “…men are quite keen on…”
Now use your 2^nd comparative linking structure:

While on the other hand…

Alternatively…
Conversely…
Then again, in opposition…


Then give a sentence to describe the 2^nd part of the 2^nd difference. You only need to describe 2 differences.

X used to be much smaller…

X always used to be more…
X didn’t use to have as many…
X didn’t use to be as…
