There does generally seem to be more white matter in female brains; make of that what you will...

On the other hand if a woman is such a drama queen that she decides to try to kill herself even though she really does not want to die I think we can assume that she is emotional weak.

But still emotionally alive to cry another day?
I couldn't resist
Ok. I could have but what fun would that be?
:)
 
Men are emotionally stronger and are the rock for their more fragile "better half". I know that sounds bad and will probably upset the females here at DP but that will also make my point.
 
Generally, in most of cases, men is stronger, because he don't feel the emotions too much. That's why he is stronger.

I don't know about that. I think we just approach emotions differently as opposed to not feeling them.
Traditionally, men are taught that they need to be stronger in emotional situations, especially when it comes to sadness or hurt. We are supposed to be the ones to "hold it together".
As a personal example. We recently took my mom off life support. My dad broke down a bit when that happened and I went and comforted him. I couldn't cry because he was crying and needed the stability of comfort I could offer.
A group of women, by contrast, can all break down together ad somehow gain that same sense of stability through it all. I don't know that either approach is right or wrong better or worse it just is different.
We are just wired differently. My honest opinion is that men and women are both stronger emotionally in different situations and completely dependent on the person involved.
Different things are expected from men and women emotionally. If this jut an illusion that human societies and bloodlines have developed over the millennia? Is it a healthy difference? I'm not the one to answer that.
