In the 90's, a full grown man who was pretending to be a doctor, wrote a book called Men Are From Mars, and Women Are From Venus. The book simply stated that women are emotional, and men are rational, while writing about his downright abusive irrational treatment of his own wife, and somehow this was a best seller.
@RickiTarr I find it very ironic, also speaking from my own experience, that these types of men are the ones whose egos can be hurt by any little thing, who immediately become morbidly jealous, and who are easily provoked and then fight with others. Dude, you're not rational. You are many times more emotional than any woman I know. Just in a very toxic way.
@Pistolenkind Right, and I can be rational and emotional at the same time! Society would be better if everyone was taught to express their emotions in a more healthy way. I don't think of it as a Male/Female problem, everyone wants to be understood and respected.
@RickiTarr By the way, emotionality is a brain function. And not a small one. More or less an entire hemisphere. Ignoring this is not particularly rational.
@Pistolenkind Great point
@RickiTarr This is also why some men are so incredibly immature if you never deal with your emotions.
