Study: "Men respond more aggressively than women to stress and it's all down to a single gene". Men - not women - are the ones who cannot control their emotions. And it seems like high testosterone levels come with low impulse control. (Might partly explain women's self-destructive dating patterns.)

Another difference between men and women: women cry more easily. Crying is self-soothing and reduces stress hormones, which also helps reign in emotions.

Nah, crying is only for kids and fags

This is why men shouldn’t be around children and babies. In our utopian, liberal, western world we want more male representation in positions like school teachers and daycare workers, which blatantly denies obvious biology that they can’t handle it.

Scientists believe the SRY gene, which directs male development, may promote aggression and other traditionally male behavioral traits resulting in the fight-or-flight reaction to stress https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/03/120308071058.htm

The SRY gene is found on the Y chromosome. https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/gene/sry/
