A woman rising her voice causes me to regress to a a 5 year old state.
Any gender, I start feeling more resentment towards them.
Sort of "How fucking dare you make me feel like shit." Revenge I suppose.
Hmm, you do bring up an interesting thought. I wonder if the same reaction is common as well if it's a woman raising her voice at a man.
It's how I was brought up.
My mum was very much the disciplinary parent between her and dad. Dad would just punch me instinctively if I was hurting him too much (don't ask, mum would tell him off for striking me in that way. Clearly mum smacking me on my arse was fine, but being gut punched as unacceptable physical contact).
Always had female teachers at school (aged 3 to 11).
My sister is as volatile as my mum.

So yeah. Man's raised voice pisses me off.
Woman's raised voice makes me feel like a child, then I get pissed off for being made to feel like that.
Sort of an empath. Would be nice if I acquired people's joy more often however. Sucks that it's easier for me to replicate people's negative emotions or sadness.
