That's probably the testosterone factor at play. Testosterone tend to make one more aggressive physically, and daring is just an extension of that trait. I am more likely to overthink and drive myself crazy, than to physically act, and put my life at risk. It's just a difference in tendencies, and it seems that women tend toward a more introspective impulse, and men toward action.
I'm inclined to agree. And I think it's testosterone that fuels the "alpha dog"/"king-of-the-mountain" impulse.
