This book provides insight into the emotion of anger from a
theoretical and empirical standpoint and from the viewpoint of
fifty ordinary women and men who share their experiences, beliefs,
and perceptions of anger in their own and others' lives. The
author's main goal is to explore the extent and sources of anger
that women and men feel toward members of the other sex and their
perceptions of what angers other men and women. Respondents'
general experiences with the emotion of anger are also
investigated. Experiences and beliefs about various aspects of
gender-based anger are put in the context of respondents' beliefs
about recent gender role changes as well as their perceptions of
ways to improve relationships between women and men.
Analysis of interviews reveals complicated patterns of
convergence and divergence based on gender. Women and men share
perceptions in reference to some aspects of anger and some
anger-related experiences. However, a significant gender gap exists
in other areas. This book makes clear the need for better
understanding and management of anger in our lives as well as the
need to structure relations between men and women so that new
ideals of equality and understanding can be realized in a context
of shared responsibilities, respect, and lack of anxiety about what
it means to be a man or a woman.
