It's genetical. Throughout history, the gene that made women take up a sword to defend her home against the "Rapist"/"Pillager" from the other tribe was "killed", so to speak, because these women obviously did not survive when taking up arms in defense. So the only gene that survived was the subverting one, the sneaky one, the liar and emotional manipulator. This is not to insult all women, but to say - they had to do it, to survive. We kinda have to talk about this in society to be honest.
Males want to hold or gain territory and resources to maintain or increase their access to females. That is why all wars are fought. Thats why men fight wars, not women. Maleness and the reproductive model in whch males fight to the death to hoard resources from each other is far older than human beings. Its legacy behaviors and they come from legacy genes that are indeed activated by androgens. Genes do control emotions. The genes Im talking about are more heavily transcribed in males and they are the reason males react more violently when their towns are being pillaged. And alot of these genes are the same in bulls and rams and roosters and bears. Its a behavioral model that appears useful in males of many different species.
You seem to be implying that genes are not in control of your reactions when your town is being pillaged. Am I right in assuming this?
