Who manages stress better, men or women?

Well i think women can handle the stress better than men. Men are usually more rational, and practical. It's the woman who does all the thinking about the men and they think so much that sometimes they forget their own lives. But even some men have a tendency to handle stress better. Depending on the situation only one can say who can handle stress better.

I was going to comment that it depends on the individual and not the gender but upon reflection I decided that women seem to handle stress a little better than men. The reason for this is that they release a lot of their stress by expressing how they feel whereas men are notorious for bottling their feelings up inside and not conveying how they are coping at any given time. These are generalisations of course and there are exceptions to every rule but I think what I described is quite typical.

I guess men manage stress better, it's just my opinion.=]

I believe everything depends on the given situation or circumstance that we all have to go through every now and then. The ability to easily cope with some stressful situations also depends on the individual's physical, emotional, spiritual, and intellectual strength. Moreover, knowledge and familiarity also play great role in coping with stress So, we can never really say with certainty that women can manage stress better than men or the other way around. So, it would be safe to say that- IT DEPENDS ON THE SITUATION.

Women cannot endure heavy hurt physically and mentally.Therefore we see it is usual that women need men's protection.We donot like to leave women in stressful situations that would cause hurt towards them,such as battlefield and other horrible places. But some strong women can aslo deal with stressful conditions very well.There are many successful women presidents or premiers nowadays.

Of course man handles stress better , he has stoned heart unlike women

This is a very interesting question and i feel this will also depend on what kind of stress one has and some types of stress like household matters, love matters etc can be handled in a better way by females and other stress factors like fightings, financial matters are handled better by male counterparts. So, it all depends on what kind of stress one is experiencing here

I am someone who carries stress all day and everyday. I have a hard time with it as it becomes Anxiety really bad. Right now i am having a hard time as my boss came in today and Slammed the door as he was in a bad mood and that made me and my heart not be in a good mood today. I can feel me not breathing so good and just can't wait to get home and lay down today. I guess you can say im not having a good day. I don't know anyone who even slams doors anymore, but he just has a bad attitude somedays. My boyfriend handles stress pretty good, he just ignores it most of the time and really laughs about it all. I have a very hard time and he doesn't at all.

Between me and my husband, I would say it depends on the situation. In certain areas, he solves the problem while I have no idea how to go about it. On the other hand, when it comes to our children or other areas, he will be wringing his hands and saying 'I don't know what to do' over and over and I would be the one to come up with a solution. Of course there are some cases which baffles us both.

It really depends on the type of the stress like most of them here wrote. In a certain situation women manage well than men, but in a different situation men are better than women in managing their level of stress. And don't forget, there are people who were born or raised in a very stressful condition - they likely manage stress better. There are people who for some reason cannot manage stress at all. They got stress for any little problems they have.

Women manages stress better than men.. because they are emotional and vocal, stres release is easier and transient in women..

in my opinion, it depends on the type or kind stress the person endures... therefore it's pretty subjective
