@Summerbreeze45 we're not robots 😝 we're all different. Why are some women soft and sweet and others are prickly and abrasive?

@Summerbreeze45 I'm not bug... but we are talking about human beings. And in a way, we are still fairly unique from eachother. That's why sociological research (when we are going to look at how people act in society) is always marked with percentages, and it's not "correct science". If we are going to look at the "exceptions" to the "norm" (which will always be there) you can argue that the general statement is flawed, and you will be able to do that with anny sociological study that doesnt have a 100% standing next to the outcome. If you do it all the time, that means that sociologists can never measure annything, and that there are not "tendencies" in humanity. That is a fallacy though, and it's over called the "nirvana fallacy", where a sociologist can never ever present the 100% correct answer and is therefore perceived "flawed" by the person that use that argument

I'm not going to say that "social conditioning" has nothing to do with it. But "hormones" are super important. When a womans' hormones play up, they ussually show a higher sense for emotionality. If you don't believe me, just ask around to a number of males that start hormone treatment to become a woman. And ask them how their moods change. Just ask enough people (like 2 or 3 is not a significant number). Same goes for male hormones, people that use male hormones ussually have a tendecy to become more aggressive. For an even better answer, you should ask a biologist. (wich I'm not) I'm sure there is someone in the crowd.
