Are women getting angrier?
BBC News ^ | December 6, 2022 | By Stephanie Hegarty, Population correspondent

…. According to a BBC analysis of 10 years of data from the Gallup World Poll, women are getting angrier.

Every year the poll surveys more than 120,000 people in more than 150 countries asking, among other things, what emotions they felt for a lot of the previous day.

When it comes to negative feelings in particular - anger, sadness, stress and worry - women consistently report feeling these more frequently than men.

The BBC's analysis has found that since 2012 more women than men report feeling sadness and worry, though both genders have been steadily trending upwards.

When it comes to anger and stress however, the gap with men is widening. In 2012 both genders reported anger and stress at similar levels. Nine years later women are angrier - by a margin of six percentage points - and more stressed too. And there was a particular divergence around the time of the pandemic.

A 2020 survey of almost 5,000 parents in heterosexual relationships in England, by the Institute for Fiscal Studies, found that mothers took on more of the domestic responsibilities during lockdown than fathers. As a result, they reduced their working hours. This was the case even when they were the higher earner in the family.

Why limit it to women? Distracted driving and road rage is becoming more common. Complete self entitlement and lack of empathy towards others in public. When people in general start acting like government bureaucrats, society crumbles.

Around 80% of all heterosexual divorces are initiated by the female spouse.

Stupid question. Of course they are. Because they’re told they’re being paid less than men, that they are equal to men physiologically, that they’re allowed to murder their unborn child but some men won’t allow it.

It turns out a career might not be awesome. Killing your babies while being a slut for a decade, not awesome. Boxed wine and cats don’t replace children and family.

Enjoy the fruits of your voting rights.

The point is the gap between sexes are growing. Perhaps being told while growing up they are princesses and can have it all, they are subsequently disappointed with real life.

Yep. That’s essentially what I was attempting to get to in a round about way…

Women have largely been conditioned to believe they should ditch traditional roles in favor of woke feminist doctrine. They do that, and become angry as a result, but nobody knows why they’re angry?

And much more crude and vulgar. The revel in gross out and shocking disgusting topics.

One in four people feel angry on any given day? That’s an eye-opener.

Commuting on the freeway, I’d guess that 1 out of 10 drivers around me are driving angry. The rest must be sublimating.

Most of what the Deep State does involves balcanism and division, one group versus another.

Heterosexual women being highlighted here.

We are being played. Over and over.... and over and over and over.

I would say that women are hard-wired to have someone take care of them.
And women are also hard-wired to resent the idea that anyone ought to be “taking care of them”.
This is covered in Genesis 3:16.

Feminism has convinced a lot of women that men are lousy and just oppress women — Sisters need to take care of themselves and have careers and stuff.

Of course, that’s hard and most women know that they do, in fact, need help — so they look to the government and they vote for politicians who will “take care of them”.

And, today, a lot of women realize how lousy the government is, and how the government isn’t taking care of them at all and is actually screwing everything up and oppressing them.

At this point, many women feel they are out of options and they are pretty angry about it.

What do they have to be more angry about in particular?!

We are all getting angrier. The elections are fixed, the constitution is ignored, the money is heading toward worthless, basic food is unavailable Or unaffordable, idiots are in charge and everything is turning to crap.
