I was just watching Any Which Way But Loose when Beverly D'Angelo almost shoots Clyde the Orangutan because she got scared. The average man wouldnt be crazy enough to do this, but the average woman might. They just make a small problem into a big problem.

I don't really think you should paint all women with the same broad and unflattering brush based on one scene from a Hollywood comedy. Some women (and a lot of guys I know) are nuts and dramatic, but the majority seem to have their acts pretty well together most of the time. I might tend to freak a little myself if I found myself confronted by a 300 pound orangutan!

Women seem more emotional because they're expected to be. Men are expected to be the opposite. That's why you see a lot more women acting out and going 'nuts' and being dramatic. So, a women might be more likely to shoot an orangutan, but a man would be more likely to shoot another man, so who's worse off really.
They also say women attempt suicide more often, but guess who succeeds most of the time? The men.

They are designed that way, so men will see the way they are and understand the dangers of being dramatic. That way, we get some people that are rational in the world.
Not all men, by the way. Women can be very level headed at the same time under the right circumstances, just like a man can be even more irrational at times. It's all a balance.

it's called exagerrating for comic effect. people (both men and women) act like buffoons in movies to get cheap laughs. why would you ascribe a broad generalization to half the population based on the actions of a movie character? that'd be like assuming all men are idiots based on an Adam Sandler flick!

Well remember that's a movie, not real life.
But everyone knows they are more emotional than men by instinct.
