SatanBurger agreed, feminine and masculine
energy is not any type of charge or anything of a physical nature (although it can result from physical things), it's a term she has made up, but what it represents is real. Ignoring the fact that we have chosen to describe it with made up words, what we're describing is real. Masculine and feminine behaviour exists, it's not as shallow as she defines it to be but it does exist from the fact that we're built differently. We're different in our figure, in our chemistry and in our brains. Of course males and females within their respective groups differ among themselves as well, but less so within the group than between the group generally speaking.
I would say that the class of femininity contains the trait of showing a higher degree of empathy and emotional expression. This is feminine because it is determined largely by your temper; with a lower temper you're likely to be more attentive of other people's emotions and have more patience, to delve into art for example.
The most robust association between a specific gene and aggression in humans is the monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) gene.
Men – who commit nearly all extreme acts of violence (sorry guys) – can have a high-functioning or low-functioning version of the gene. (Women can also have an intermediate version.)
The relative importance of this gene comes from its role in regulating the functioning of neurotransmitters (such as serotonin and dopamine), which help regulate emotions.
Several studies have found that men with the low-functioning version of the gene are especially likely to engage in violence and other antisocial behaviour if they were exposed to childhood abuse.
Even more recently, psychology experiments from two independent laboratories found that research participants with the low-functioning allele were more aggressive than people with the high-functioning variant, but interestingly only when provoked. What is perhaps remarkable is that these research participants were mentally healthy university students.
These findings suggest that people with the low-functioning variant of the MAOA gene may be less proficient in controlling anger and aggressive behaviour. But our understanding of the importance of control, when it comes to a genetic predisposition toward aggression, is incomplete.
