I think a few women on this forum have proven the findings of this study:
IT is the research finding every man suspected, and every women will vehemently disagree with - women are the angrier sex.
New research that examined the responses of 22,000 people over 50 years has found that women are more likely to feel angry and persistently frustrated than men.
A recent study at Middlesex University suggested that old women tend to be grumpier than old men. The new report found that while men tend to become more tolerant as they get older, women stay angrier than ever, falling out with their friends, getting irritated by strangers in the street and feeling frustrated by the vagaries of modern technology.
They also are more likely to act on their frustration in an unhealthy manner, choosing passive aggression over non-violent confrontation, psychologists say.
And Hell really has no fury like a woman scorned, as thirtysomething women with no partner are far more likely to report angry feelings than those with partners.
University of London psychologist Windy Dryden said the study confirms previous research in which diary (and forum) entries of American men and women found substantially more references to anger in the women's journals (and forums).
Dr Dryden, who runs a clinical practice in London, said his work with patients suggests women respond to anger in a less constructive manner than men.
He said: "Instead of using it as an opportunity for assertion, they tend not to deal with it directly, often becoming passively aggressive, talking behind people's backs, or taking feelings out on other people.
"Men have their own problems - violence mainly - but I don't think women have learned to use anger for the positive," he said.
Some quotes from Mulie:
"You and your subservience to men disgust me"
"ESL Teachers orginal topic and all the comments that have followed make me sick"
"You should all be ashamed of yourselves."
"I am sick of it"
Damn girl you got some serious issues. Are you the Bunny Boiler from Fatal Attraction?
