How come when emotional men use anger and shouting to try and get their way it’s “abusive”, but when women…?

…use crying fits and sulking to get their way “it’s not their fault, women have different hormones / brains / whatever”?

Newsflash: Guys have different hormones too. Testosterone makes us more prone to get mad, and estrogen makes women more prone to be over dramatic. Why is one accepted by society as “the norm” while the other is “abuse”? The crying and sulking thing can easily be used as a weapon just as much as a guy’s loud voice or temper can, and both are effectively used to try and impose someone’s will on someone else…

Double standards much?

(For the record, I think both are unacceptable abuse and people should try to control their hormonal emotions, but I resent the fact that women “need sympathy” and guys “need to learn to control themselves”)
Broken angel – I’m not talking about physical violence, I’m talking about purely emotional and verbal fighting. And I’m not saying you necessarily believe this, I’m just asking why society considers a guy who is emotionally unstable as abusive, but women who are emotionally unstable are “unfortunate”?
Brain4 – where did I mention physical force? I specifically said that I was talking about emotional manipulation, not physical.
Wendy: The reason it’s a double standard is that both stereotypes are caused by sexual differences due to hormones. Why does one person get excused because “it’s not your fault you’re hormonal” but not the other?
