Women are often portrayed as more emotional than men. If a woman shows any emotion during a debate, it's because women as a whole are "too angry" or "too sensitive" for the sport of argument. If a woman disagrees with someone she does not like or goes against the grain, she must be "on the rag."
When we enter the pure, cold, emotionless world of actual numbers, the truth becomes far different than the common perception that males are more in control of their emotions than females. Statistics show that 80% of violence is perpetrated by males. That's 80% of all rapes, assaults, and murders.
Numbers don't lie.

The Macabre Minds of Male Murderers
It's rather difficult to rape, assault, or murder and have zero emotions going on, regardless of whether the offender is in touch with his emotions or not. Would Ed Gein have kept nine vulvae in a shoe box, Bernice Worden's head in a burlap sack, and a pair of lips on a window shade drawstring if he had no emotions relative to his mother? Would Dennis Rader, the BTK strangler, have taunted police for years with cryptic hints if he was not emotionally excited by being chased and prideful about escaping capture?

I'd call Gein and Rader a couple of ultra-emotional guys.
An Emotional Killer is a Stupid Killer
Contrarily, if I wanted to commit murder, the last thing I would do would be to give into my emotional urges to keep mementos like Gein or to send love notes to the police, like Rader.
Why? Because I actually can control my emotions, so:

A. I don't kill people in the first place
B. If I do kill someone, the last thing I'll do is leave CLUES
The Emotional Sex
Men talk a good game, but they are by far the more emotional sex. They express their inability to control their emotions by raping, killing, raiding, and by engaging in the macro-version of raiding behavior, war.
There was a time when people thought chimpanzees were peaceful, gentle creatures. Chimpanzee society was thought of as a bacchanalian idyll. That was until deep study revealed almost all types of chimp groups were plagued by a recurring pattern. In this pattern, hierarchies with an alpha at the top banded together and raided their fellow chimps for resources, often killing them brutally. The chimps at the top of the hierarchy were invariably male.
As it turns out, male chimpanzees cause 80% of all chimpanzee violence, a statistic that is uncannily similar to a certain other, more upright ape, no? The only counterexample in all of Chimpanzeeland was found within a breed of chimps called the bonobos, which was remarkably peaceful and mostly absent of ritualistic raid/kill/destroy campaigns from males. Bonobos are a female dominated society with groups of matriarchal (female) alphas and cooperative culture. Quelle surprise.
A Perpetual Curse
Women may go on the rag once a month, but those who commit 80% of the world's violent crimes would seem to be suffering drastic mood swings far more often than once a month. I guess they call it MENstruation for a reason? Jokes aside, the world of the male mind is fraught with dizzying, terrifying flights of fanciful emotion. Imagine being plagued by thoughts like these:
"Will I be able to get laid if I'm too short and fat?"
"He's got a bigger penis/more money/a prettier female than I do, now I HATE HIM!"
"God wants me to have four children!"
"I'm going to beat the shit out of her if she gets smart with me again."
"That waitress owes me sex because she was nice to me."
"I'm proud of my country and I hate anyone who doesn't share my particular skin color/religion/privilege. I'm going to join the armed forces to fight for OUR FREEDOM!"
"I think this time I'm going to literally die from this head cold."
"How dare he suggest I have an alcohol problem? I can quit anytime I want."
"That Facebook group won't let me in because they say I'm a troll? I'LL SUE!"
"Global warming is fake. It's actually getting cooler."
Speaking of global warming, casual observation reveals we are in the midst of the Sixth Mass Extinction, an era commonly dubbed as the Holocene.
The Holocene Extinction is the accumulated result of male raiding behaviors over millennia.
Back in the Fertile Crescent days, the male of our species was responsible for the invention of animal agriculture, which involved the trapping and breeding of wild animals until they were domesticated and could be exploited for food, entertainment, and clothing. The human female was also on the list of exploits, because in order for proto-capitalist kings to amass large empires, it was essential to dominate females of all species for their reproductive power. Even the word "dominate" possesses the etymology of the Latin word dominari, which means lord or master.
Not mother or mistress. Lord.

Control a female's reproductive system, whether it is for baby boys or eggs and milk, and you the control the world.
Nevertheless, this was all old news east of the Tigris/Euphrates Eden, as it had already happened quite a few years earlier in China.
A Formula For Extinction
The pattern of males is to worship and adore an alpha male king, who does his kingly duty by amassing power.

Females are considered a lower species (e.g. Adam's rib) because of the aforementioned detail of their reproductive power, which requires domination by males in order for the patriarchal construct to function. Females are told to reproduce as many proletarians as their uteruses can spew, because alpha males need a large workforce with which to exploit their empire's natural bounty in the most efficient way possible.
The kingly duty of the alpha male is to exhaust the resources in his local area in the drive for more power, than to find another society to raid, strip it of its natural resources, and repeat the cycle by passing on the behaviors via his harem to his son/sons. The human alpha male reaps copious evolutionary rewards for completing the cycle over and over again, gaining empire, fabulous homes, trophy wives and girlfriends, and the ubiquitous $10,000 umbrella stand. You knew I had to put it in here somewhere.
Oops....
Oops....
A problem occurs when the human male, whom evolution has placed at the pinnacle of the raid/exploit/amass/raid pyramid, runs out of planet to exploit. This planet is done for, so alpha males look to Mars with stars in their eyes, conveniently forgetting that no successful biodome project has ever been completed right here on Earth, which actually has breathable air if an explorer's luck runs out.
With two degrees or more Celsius baked into our Holocene, we are looking at an extinction that resembles the Permian (that's the one 251 million years ago that wiped out 95% of all life on Earth) on steroids.
An evolutionary "winner" who quickly causes the extinction of not only himself but nearly all other species on Earth is what I think we can safely call an evolutionary mistake.
Maleness, especially human maleness, is a defect.
A sex that orchestrates its own demise and is furthermore incapable of doing anything but accelerating its own descendants' demise is just plain inferior to a sex that would conserve its own species at the very least.

A sex that drives its own species to a situation where insane, tumor-studded cannibal pirates battle each other to the death over a single, unopened can of botulism-compromized, hundred year old pineapple is not an evolutionary success.
A sex that is quickly engineering a world for itself that looks like the hot version of Cormac McCarthy's The Road is not an evolutionary win.
A sex that refuses to do anything about the impeding horrific suffering of its own children and grandchildren despite ample warnings is an outright evolutionary failure.
This Is On Females Too
It's not human (or chimpanzee) females trying to seed petty dictatorships and banana republics across the globe, however, the women who acquiesce to male power patterns by jumping into bed with the first bad boys who'll take them and who gleefully bear his parasites are also culpable in our mass evolutionary suicide.

And Now For An Absence of Sunshine Up Your Ass
Unlike everything else you'll read on the internet, this is the paragraph you are not going to get a "but there's still hope" from me. I'm not going to blow smoke up anyone's ass. There is no hope for our race. We are going extinct, most likely in about 500 years if we are lucky. What we can do is say no to the usual unchecked demonic male behavior by recognizing, curbing, and dare I say occasionally punishing the lesser sex for its sins.
