In my experience, this varies a lot depending on where you are. In Minneapolis? Yeah, I'd say younger guys tend to be better adjusted -- but not all (see my example -- he's gonna grow up some day).
But Tucson? DC? Tennessee? No, I don't think so.
I know a lot men tend to express a little differently. But I think a lot of these incidences are avoidable, and have a lot to do with social training.
To be honest, I'm not even sure how innate those expression differences are. I've met men who out-communicate me and they were raised in more open environments.
I agree that social training is a big factor, which is why we see some countries more violent than others. If it were strictly a male/female distinction, we would see closer numbers between countries than we do.
