text: are males emotionally weaker than women? its just that i have heard about it  and i want to know if it is true!!!!!!!!!! that questions is flawed because it assumes that emotional intellignece or strength is a function of gender alone.  upbringing, position within society, quality of home life, etc...will all influence emotional stability.  in general, one can not presume that males are emotionally weaker than women.  some men are emotionally weaker, some women are emotionally weaker.  some people, regardless of gender, become stronger with their emotions over time while others become weaker.  their is no steadfast rule concerning this.  and just because somebody is emotionally weak now, does not mean they will be emotionally weak in the future.
