    Speaking from experience. Women are more emotional. <<< millennials and younger can stop reading here and downvote

    Just scientifically going off how hormones fluctuate both in their monthly cycle and throughout their lives and turning perimenopausal to completely menopauze, is no walk in the park.

    Most men would not handle that very well. I my experience with women in positions of power, they are just way more aware and can self regulate a lot better just because of this.

      That should be a qualifier rather than a disqualifier. Who gives a shit if someone feels more feels than someone else? How they act is what matters. For instance, when my wife was breast feeding, the let down would fill her with overwhelming feelings of rage. Yet I never once saw her snap at anyone because of it, which to me showed a tremendous amount of restraint. Way more restraint than two grown ass men having a teenage girl level social media slap fight.

      I think this depends on how you define “more emotional”. Is expressing more aspects of emotion “more emotional” than the constantly pissed off dad screaming at the umpire at a little league game?

      Imo women are better at expressing their emotions and communicating them to others, but men are just as emotional.

        All sarcasm aside, you’re showing symptoms too my man, it’ll be a nice test of your love for both of you.

      Men are more emotional if you factor in all the feelings they’ve buried under the surface because they don’t want to express them. Just less like a river and more like a geyser.
