    We're not allowed to cry, but we're just as sensitive. Why are guys generally better than girls at math? Maybe we're not, but if we were it probably has to do with what our culture encourages/permits.

    Great answer by babe.

    Well as she said women are nurturers and nest defenders. They are suppose to be more sociable and sensitive to emotions so that they can keep the family together as well as attend to the needs of their young ones.

    Men on the other hand are warriors and hunters by nature. They cannot allow emotional state of their mind affect their ability to defend and protect their loved ones. It all depends on how masculine or feminine a brain is.

    Moreover guys are not encouraged by the society to express their emotions as freely as women. They might do it in front of their loved ones but not in public, in front of strangers.

    Haven't you heard ppl saying "stop crying n be a man!!"

    It's now Nature designed us....females are more emotional because we are the nurturers..the ones who were designed to bear and raise the offspring.

    Males are less emotional because Nature designed them to be tough, to provide for others, to fight foes, and they can't be effective doing that if they break down in tears or have PMS frequently.

    When we (males and females) come together, there is a sort of balance...it wouldn't work as well if all were equally emotional or unemotional (and of course most of us also have some traits of the other sex as well). Women can be tough, guys can be sensitive.

    I think it's just the way we're wired at the factory, my dear. Why do women have mammary glands and men have testicles? Women are more sensitive due to estrogen because they're suppose to be in charge of taking care of the babies. Men have the responsibility of hunting for food and protecting the home, so he's equipped with more testosterone to make them less afraid to stand up to foes. We all have both to a certain degree. Some women can have less estrogen and some men can have less testosterone. It's just the way it's suppose to work.

    not all girls are..

    and i've met some pretty emotional men haha

    i think girls were raised knowing it's okay to cry.. and so we go ahead and cry when we feel the need...

    guys just dont do it in public b/c they werent raised to think it was alright for them to cry.

    Source(s): my opinion, anyway.
