why do men tend to get mad rather than sad in unpleasant situations?

Author: admin Category: mad men

When things are not going well for men, I see they "tend" to get mad rather than sad.

I see when things are going well for women, they tend to get sad rather than mad.

Example of things that may not be going well can be relationship, jobs, kids, family, friends, etc.

men have insecurities involving more of material things and they are often more proud than the opposite sex…it's how the way nature goes, men are prone to being mad since they don't talk it out while women are prone to being sad because girls, typically, are seen as emotional beings.

Sometimes people get mad as a defence or instead of getting sad that's how they raise they walls and express their reaction to what's going on. Crying is a natural thing, but even I as a chick tend to act macho and get angry at times rather then appear sad. Sometimes that can do you damge though, and yeah i know it's not good.

Because they don't know how to handle the situation.
