Aggression in men

[MLMbotsno]

Why are some men so aggressive over the smallest things?

Eg having to wait so traffic can come through a narrow road. Finger or shouting. Mere seconds delay causing extreme reaction.
Slight knock as someone goes by in a busy area and swearing at person
General aggression towards women
So much anger. Makes me wonder what these 'men" are like if someone really does do something wrong or how they treat their partners or girlfriend. Scary

For the same reason some women are, probably.

i know men and women like this too

Are you walking (or worse driving?) around knocking into people and not saying "sorry" and then wondering why they're upset?

Some people are aggressive unfortunately - I've seen it in men and women. More often in men perhaps. But rudeness and aggression seems to have increased (in daily life) for both sexes.

Well behind the wheel of a car - and in my own personal experience of driving thousands of miles per year - I have never yet witnessed or encountered road rage from a female Driver.
Not yet anyway..

It’s not necessarily a gender thing. It’s a person thing. Some people are angry and that makes them aggressive in language and actions. It’s totally counterproductive but dangerous when it turns physical.

Their anger is usually their poison. There is no need to drink it with them. Preserve you own positive feelings and be glad you don’t have theirs. Until they turn physical remember that anger is eating them up and destroying their relationships.

I’ve had aggression from random women as well tbh!

Not at all. I genuinely didn't do either of ghe things you suggested. I always say sorry if I accidentally knick someone. With this particular individual it wasn't me, it was the next person along leaving an event.

Fair enough but on the few encounters of road rage over many years of driving its always been men.

It is a sex thing and more targetted towards women and especially women drivers. Men towards one another generally do an appeasement dance.
