Why do women eat when they're upset?

Question

I'm aware that not all women are like this and that there are plenty of exceptions out there. This is not meant to be a generalization and an offensive question, just a curiosity of mine. Most women are portrayed like this in movies.

With all due respect, Sex Gun, your answer is obviously not the correct one, not to mention that it's offensive. But with a name like that... it is to be expected.

Anyway, I'm waiting for women to answer this. I'm not interested in cheap jokes from guys.

Answer 1

Like you said, not all women are like that. I, on the other hand, tend to starve myself when I'm upset. I've gone for days without eating anything.

Answer 2

women may eat when they are upset because they want comfort.they may also eat to forget things. most women are likely to eat when they have the pms. girls are likely to eat more if they are not given adequate attention or when they have traumatic incidents in their past. they fill the gaps and spaces by eating or stuffing themselves too much...hope the info is helpful

Answer 3
