Talk about women's hormones if you want. But unhappy, angry men are the deadliest weapon on Earth
How many women have carried out mass shootings? Just asking. For a friend, you know.

You seem so oppressed. I hope you don't get hysterical or overly-emotional about this, but it seems you are. 
We are so oppressed! Stop picking on us! 
Do you want to be associated with loony conservative women? Why antagonize liberal men who might actually agree with you on policy like gun control?
Of course there are female mass shooters and terrorists, especially in other countries in the Middle East or Africa.
America definitely has a lot of issues!
On a completely unrelated note, I've never owned any guns but I did have a Texan girlfriend who had several at home.
Defect much?...Try again. 
I give up!
A wise decision.
I wish you the best of luck with it.
I'm done here.
In my experience with myself and a large number of others, most men have a lot of pent-up anger, resentment and fear. When young, we're taught (mostly by association) that men can't show emotion or overt anger, so that we appear in control at all times. That's at the heart of many of our issues. Further, we're expected to be on top of our game and to be leaders (daddy, captain, chief, etc.) at all times.
Sometimes, even for relatively young men, that pent-up stuff erupts and men do horrible acts - simply because they were not man enough to open up and talk through their inadequacies and fears, and they don't want to appear weak or in need. Many simply turn to alcohol or drugs as an escape.
By the time we're 50 or so, we've built-up this god-like ego inside ourselves that is ripe to be burst. Then, the hormones start to drop and sometimes depression begins. To make matters worse, energy and stamina levels drop, making it hard to get things done. Joints and muscles begin to weaken. Testosterone supplements are sometimes suggested, but can be very dangerous to use.
Not saying all this to gain sympathy as a man, as I'm quite familiar with the problems women go through as well. My main point is that as a society, we all need learn to drop our pride and ego and to open up dialog with each other at the very beginning of our issues. That can begin by seeing ourselves as equals.
and well said!
I wanted 3 girls, but got 3 boys..
Our sons were all born within 5 years, so none really ever got the "precious son routine"for very long.. We also moved 5 times (IN-KS-CO-NM-CA) within that same 5 years ..(job related)..
Our young sons had to keep making new friends,, sometimes had to share rooms..and as they grew I insisted that they do their own "stuff"..like folding , putting their own laundry away..and as they got tall enough and could reach the knobs, their own laundry too..
They all helped in the kitchen and now their wives thank me 
They are all excellent cooks.. When they were teens each one had his own iron, and if they wanted something ironed...well they did it
Each one had his own special talents and we allowed them to find their own way..None of them were ever pressured to do what WE wanted for them..
They grew up to be gentle, kind, men.(although our oldest is feared by his subordinates because he is the boss, and does not suffer fools lightly)
Thank you for your compliment.
Women can do anything men can do but only the good things. 
It's always those other people who are the problem. Everyone is constantly trying to distance themselves from mass shooters. No one wants to be associated with these killers.
"Other people" are the ones who get harassed and discriminated. Trump's people stay up late at night thinking how to define and punish "other people". It's disappointing to see supposedly smart liberals here engaging in "othering" as a solution to problems.

and have limits on men's power, size, and capacity and require a wait list and background check before acquiring each man. Time to pass men control!
Conservative women might keep a man under her pillow for protection but she's delusional. Extremist/feminist women will use men to terrorize other women. What about the millions of women who enjoy using men for fun and sport? What about the women who just like to collect men and show them off to their friends?
