I was talking to a trans friend about this.

Apparently men and women seem to feel emotions at the same rate and level. The difference is that, being female (at least hormonally) massively drops your ability to suppress emotions.

  • Both feel equally.

  • Women tend to vent little and often. This leads to better emotional management.

  • Men can suppress for a long time. However, when they blow, it's like a pressure cooker exploding. This leads to more emergency venting, and poorer management.
