    I being a woman, I would choose my mind and not the heart because, based on my experience, heart is often wrong, and provides more hurt later. To be honest, if I will be in the receiving end, I would probably get angry and cajole short of intimidating my partner into seeing it my way, regardless whether I am correct or not, though I do not experience this anymore (being in the receiving end) as I always use my mind more, however painful the consequences are... This came naturally for me and maybe because of lessons learned from past experiences and of course emotional maturity.
