One of the most important components of human psycho-emotional behavior is the expression of emotions. With its help, a person communicates with relatives, friends, colleagues and just strangers in society. But not for everyone and not always this communication occurs at the level of friendliness, respect and calm.
Quite often, people (men more often than women) express their emotions with uncontrolled anger, irritation, malice, without thinking through the consequences in the most banal and simple life situations. Although such outbreaks are usually short-lived, they leave behind a lot of problems and troubles.
Having realized his behavior, a person has to apologize, look for a way out of situations created by himself and feel a sense of guilt. In order not to spoil the mood and life of others and to preserve his health, a person must know how to deal with temper.
But in order to combat this very unattractive trait, it is necessary to understand its root causes and nature.
Causes of temper
There can be many reasons for unbridled temper.
- Nervous overstrain. A person speaks out in an intemperate manner, flares up with anger seemingly without reason, becomes angry and even aggressive. Of course, in such a state it is impossible to control your actions and words. Excessive temper can be provoked by regular lack of sleep, constant anxiety, accumulated fatigue, or any problems in life.
- Destructive habits - alcohol or drug abuse, improper low-calorie diet, vitamin deficiency.
- Low self-esteem - a person experiences discomfort within himself, he is dissatisfied with himself and, as a result, lashes out at others.
- Physiological factors - health status often plays a cruel joke on a person. Attacks of temper and aggression can provoke diseases of the digestive system, diabetes, problems with the thyroid gland, and mental disorders.
- Hormonal changes - hot temper and hysteria as its manifestation - are characteristic of women during pregnancy and menopause. Men become overly irritable, and even aggressive, during a period of decreased testosterone production by the body.

We should not forget that hot temper, as a character trait, can be inherited.
Uncontrolled temper can gradually develop into a habit, become a character trait and, ultimately, poison the life of a person and his family and destroy his career.
Psychologists claim that a person can drive unexpressed emotions inside himself and thereby give impetus to the development of serious mental illnesses.
But still, a reasonable person should be aware of his problems and look for ways to solve them.
Male irritability syndrome - a new diagnosis?
The topic of aggression, violence, and incontinence in men has been very relevant lately. Recently, a term such as Male Irritability Syndrome (MIS) .
There is no exact definition of this syndrome, just as it is not included in the ICD classification of diseases. Probably, it was originally invented as an analogy with menopause in women: in men, also at a certain age (after 40 years), the production of the sex hormone begins to decrease. And indeed, during this period, changes in mood and behavior occur.
But if we now type “male irritability syndrome” into the search, we can see that absolutely any episodes of “bad” male behavior at any age are dumped there, and all this is explained by testosterone.
On the one hand, it's easier. On the other hand, it’s a shame for men. They are presented as absolutely primitive creatures. Although our behavior originates from animal instincts, so many things are layered on them: upbringing, culture, education, awareness of our role in society, the ability to control ourselves. In addition, our nervous system is a very complex thing, and is regulated not only by testosterone.
In the end, there are various diseases, both somatic and mental, that need to be treated, and not hidden behind a non-existent syndrome.
Ways to deal with temper
If you want to eradicate this negative character trait, a person must understand how to get rid of temper:
- first we need to analyze the causes of these inappropriate outbreaks;
- draw appropriate conclusions;
- Based on this, try to adjust your behavior.
If the cause of irascibility is chronic overfatigue and overstrain, then the best way is good, preferably active rest, quality long-term sleep, and doing what you love.
Communicating with nature, with animals, and playing sports, especially those associated with good physical activity, relieves stressful situations well.
If a specific person is an irritant, it makes sense to reduce communication with her to a minimum, if it is not possible to avoid contact with her altogether.
Editor's choice: What kind of mood is there and how to use it
If some actions or phrases of a certain person are an irritant, you need to simply, openly and calmly talk to him about it and, perhaps, the problem will be eliminated.
If the reason for your temper lies in yourself, you need to accustom yourself to the idea that no two people are equally correct. Instead of correcting someone's behavior and life principles, we should try to learn to control our emotions. In such cases, the method of “good memories” has a good effect.
You need to have some small thing with you associated with a pleasant event in life. When a feeling of internal boiling comes, it is worth touching this thing and remembering everything connected with it. This helps you master your emotions and cope with the onset of temper.
How to extinguish conflicts and a man's temper
Chapter for a women's book.
Women are believed to be less aggressive than men. However, in fact, the aggressiveness of men and women is the same, it is just expressed differently. Another important property of the women’s psyche is conformity. That is, adapting oneself, one’s behavior, and views to the environment.
Women have high adaptability to external social conditions. Unlike men, who adapt the environment to suit themselves, change it, it is easier for women to adapt to what already exists, to change themselves in order to fit into the already existing environment, into the society where they are located. Therefore, women are more likely to restrain the type of aggression that is most condemned - physical. However, this is not absolute: female physical violence (both against men and against other women) is very common, and the level of violence in women's prisons exceeds that in men's prisons. In addition, women are more likely than men to be verbally aggressive and act behind their backs. Intrigues, gossip, pitting people against each other, setups, etc. This is also aggression.
However, let's move on to the topic of the chapter. How to deal with a hot-tempered man in everyday life? To begin with, I will work as Captain Obvious and say that it is better to behave calmly and gently with a hot-tempered man in everyday life. Unfortunately, modern women are mostly matriarchal. They are like this because they were raised in matriarchal families, they have matriarchal girlfriends, they are used to the fact that a woman dominates and pushes a man. Women absorb this behavior and act the same way. That is, they abandon the female model of behavior and use the male one. They are trying to suppress, fix, push, force a man to obey. Many men give in. Nowadays, the majority of sons are raised by matriarchal mothers, who are often lonely and offended by all men, including their own son, because he is also a man. Many men are accustomed to female dominance. They obey, agree, play the role of a rug, a whipping boy. Sometimes, however, when drunk they may hit the table with their fist, but this is nothing more than a release of steam. Once the steam has subsided, he asks for forgiveness and submits again.
But this will not work with a normal man. Women who apply the male model of behavior towards men provoke or aggravate conflicts. They act with their husband as another man. To put it very simply, a battle between two males begins. Need I say that the husband loses all feelings for such a woman? It is impossible for one man to love another man, even if he is in a dress and shouts in a woman’s voice.
Moreover, it is impossible to bend a normal man using the methods that unscrupulous women use: insults, blackmail, demonstrative tears, stamping of feet, scandals, threats and other parasitic tricks. A normal, confident man would simply break up with such a special one.
That is, the woman in this case herself becomes either the source of the conflict, or the factor that fuels and intensifies it.
Meanwhile, the best way to interact with an irritated man is to remain in the position that is most suitable for a normal man's companion. It is best to be not a dominant male, a capricious princess or a glamorous kitty, but a calm and faithful, reliable companion. And at the same time feminine. Give a man affection, warmth, a feeling of cozy rear.
If a man is angry, treat him gently, calmly, stroking him. No need to shout or push. On the contrary, talk quietly, affectionately, with a smile, tell him pleasant things, touch him. With this behavior of women, 95% of men will immediately reduce the degree of irritation, because they will feel that they are treated with warmth and kindness.
The most effective way is to treat your man kindly, gently, calmly, meekly, without shouting, without noise, without pressure, without ridicule. Any attempts to put pressure on “masculinity,” “responsibility,” or “fearlessness” work in much the same way as trying to put out a fire with gasoline. All these “what a mess”, “you’re an alarmist” work against both of you.
And even more so, you can’t be offended by a man. We do not accept extreme manifestations such as breaking furniture and assault (it is better to exclude such people from your life altogether). We are talking about the usual state when a man is irritated and angry. He has the right to such emotions. With resentment, you destroy the bridge that connects you and through which a man expects support from you. If you don't like him screaming, it's better to say so later, when everything calms down. Explain that it scares you, you don’t like it. But under no circumstances should you do this at a time when the man is on edge. Nobody fixes a car going down a steep hill. Let him stop first.
Joke. A woman comes to the doctor and says: “Doctor, I don’t know what to do with my husband. He yells and swears all the time. Help". The doctor gives her a chamomile decoction: “As soon as your husband starts to get angry, take a mouthful of this decoction and do not spit it out until the husband calms down.” A month later, the woman came to the doctor with gratitude: “You are just a sorcerer, you saved our family from conflicts!” Doctor: “You see how good it is sometimes to just be silent!”
Calm and gentle. Meekly and slowly. Just be a woman. Learn to be a woman if you don't have it. Most of our women simply do not know how to be a woman. Anyone: a boy in a skirt, a capricious, always dissatisfied aches, a bullish alpha male, a loud woman - anyone, but not a feminine woman. What will she receive in response from the man? Only irritation, and very soon the man will get tired of it. He will say: “Listen, dear, if you don’t like everything so much, then go for a walk, what are you doing with me, if I’m not the way you want me to be? What are you doing here next to me? Do you have this form of masochism?” This is the only thing a woman will achieve with her incomprehensible behavior: capricious or angry, quarrelsome or mocking.
How to behave with a man if he starts to get angry? Unfortunately, it is a very rare woman who can remain silent in response to her man’s anger. Usually he starts arguing with him, only making things even worse. A good way to avoid stirring up conflict: if a man is angry, just leave him alone. Just don't touch a man who is angry. Let him be alone with himself, don’t say anything to him, don’t ask him anything, don’t give him any hints, don’t invite him, not even for dinner. For an angry man, the problem is much more important than food.
Men are usually easy-going. He will quickly move away, strong emotions will subside, and then you can talk calmly. Support and reassure. Suggest a possible solution to the problem. Most likely, the man will come up to you and tell you what caused his anger. Or, when you see that he is already calm, gently ask him what happened. In the simplest words: “I see that you are angry, did something happen?” The man will tell you everything. How to support a man in trouble - read the chapter of the same name.
So, an important rule: it is better to leave an angry man alone. Let the anger go. The second rule: do not shame, do not ridicule, do not appeal to “masculinity.” It is better to remain silent at first (at the peak of anger), and then calmly, kindly, and kindly ask what happened and support. A quiet voice, gentle touches: so that a man understands that he is with a loving woman, and not a strict teacher. That he is at home, among friends, and not enemies or random people.
It is easier not to support a conflict that is just beginning, and it will go out on its own. Conflict is always the actions of two people. If one does not act, then by definition there can be no conflict.
In 99% of cases, women know how to put out a conflict, they just don’t use it. Their habits include dominant, teacher, controlling and demanding behavior. Ask any woman: “What to do when a man starts to get angry?” Each will give the correct answer: “Change the tone of voice to a gentle one” and so on, which we have already discussed.
If you see that a man is angry, just come up and purr, hug, kiss: ordinary affection often works better than other means. This perfectly calms a man down.
Friction between a man and a woman most often arises when a man believes that he is not being listened to and his authority is not recognized. How to behave if a man is angry with you specifically?
If the reason for the quarrel is some little thing, then just start purring and caressing with the man. And as in the joke about chamomile decoction. This will save you from problems that can arise in the future.
If there is a quarrel over a fairly serious issue and these means do not help (although they work very often, even when things are serious), in order to move the conversation from an abusive channel to a constructive one, just let the man understand that you are on his side in any case, that you are not The enemy of a man is that you listen to him, acknowledge his leadership and have the last word. You are ready to do as he decides. Just take a step to the side and let the man do his job - manage the family, make decisions. Among wolves, if one does not want to fight, he lies on his back and exposes the most unprotected places. Thus, he makes it clear to the second wolf that he, of course, can kill him, but this will not bring any honor. If a woman shows her humility, submission to a man, that she is not his enemy, not a rival, she obeys him, she is calm, affectionate - this will already be quite enough for a man’s anger towards a woman to noticeably decrease. Instead of two-way shouting, comes the opportunity to discuss the problem in a calm, constructive manner. The emphasis shifts from the personalities of the man and woman to the topic of the quarrel itself.
And vice versa: if a woman demonstrates disobedience to her husband, readiness to fight him in a ranked duel, then the man stops perceiving her as a woman and sees him as another male - and an opponent at that.
If the question is very serious, you are very guilty and the man is very angry, even to the point of breaking off the relationship. I have been observing women for a very long time, almost fifteen years (and before that, not as a researcher, but simply as a man). I see one standard and very bad feature in them. Even if a woman is openly guilty, even if she really ruined everything, she will attack the man to the end. And the more guilty she is, the more furiously she will attack. Admitting your guilt and apologizing, repenting, and even more so reconsidering your behavior is something supernatural and impossible. This is how women themselves ruin their own relationships, and often their own destiny: after all, even when changing men, they drag themselves and their character along with them, from one relationship to another. And they run into the same problems. For some, this can be seen as if from a carbon copy: several relationships, all proceeded according to the same scenario and broke down due to the woman’s inability to suppress her desire to dominate her husband, due to the inability to admit her guilt, her mistakes, and work on them. Women simply destroy their own families, couples over their knees, trample on the rubble until everything turns into nothing and can no longer be restored.
Even when a man catches a woman cheating, she still does not admit her guilt. She lies, makes things up, shifts the blame onto her husband: they say, it was because of you that I cheated.
You must be able to distinguish a man’s irritation due to extraneous reasons from anger, the reasons for which are directly related to you, come from you. When you really did something bad: you spent a large amount of money without his knowledge, you were caught flirting with another man online, or something else like that - and at the same time you refuse, and even begin to build insults, turn over the blame - This is where the relationship ends. They simply burst from female egoism.
Firstly, the man is angry with the woman for her bad deed, and secondly, this anger is intensified by the woman’s obstinacy, unwillingness to admit guilt and change her behavior. And if he doesn’t want to change his behavior, then everything will be repeated again and again. This is the lady's character. And she is not going to change it.
An anecdote on topic. A frog sits on the bank of the river. A scorpion crawls up and says: “Frog, take me to the other side, please.” The frog says: “No, you’ll bite me.” Scorpio: “Well, think about it, why would I bite you? After all, if I bite you, you will die in the middle of the river, and I will also drown.” “Slaughter,” thought the frog and agreed. They are swimming, suddenly a scorpion! - and bit the frog. She said with her last strength: “Well, why, we’ll both die anyway!” Scorpio (choking): “Damn, I couldn’t help myself, that’s my nature...”
Moreover, madam turns upside down, as if the man himself is to blame for everything.
This is very often the reason for the breakdown of relationships. The lion's share of women whose husbands have left me come to me with similar situations. The desire to subjugate a man so that he himself begins to apologize to a woman for her own wrongdoing does not work with normal men. This especially often haunts women who are accustomed to blaming henpecked people, so that they ask for forgiveness and shower the “victim” with gifts. Attempts to use this on a normal man quickly end in failure, completely unexpected for a woman. It turns out that the word “break up” means the end of the relationship, and not that in a week the man will come crawling with apologies and gifts. The woman begins to wait for the doorbell to ring, but it still doesn’t come.
“Well, he’s not a goat, is he?!” I just brutally broke the relationship over my knee, showed my power, just like a queen, and he still hasn’t been imbued with my greatness!”
Instead of asking the man for forgiveness and seriously working on her behavior, the woman sits and waits for the man to come to “atone.” However, only the postman with his pension arrives. Or a long-time ex, battered and down.
The behavior of a mother, girlfriends, TV series and articles on the Internet do a woman a disservice. She decides that it is always the man who must make peace, and not the one who is really to blame. It’s even worse if a woman, in principle, does not consider herself to be guilty of anything and never - even a doctor will not help.
It happens that a woman realizes her guilt, but show-off and the desire to be superior to a man prevent her from admitting it. “How can I, I myself, go apologize?! No, let him come on his own, and so be it, I don’t mind making peace. But only if he comes!” For this annoying reason, even quite good, harmonious couples break up.
Men are becoming smarter (including thanks to my books), they are beginning to understand that being guilty everywhere, constantly coming with apologies just because you are a man is ridiculous and humiliating. So ladies who are used to turning over insults lose their freedom of maneuver. If you feel like you have such a sin, change, or you will remain in the minority. With a broken destiny.
Therefore: if you are objectively guilty, if you see that the relationship is falling apart at the seams or the man is angry, admit your guilt and deal with your behavior. Otherwise, you will lose a normal, serious man, of which there are very few in the world anyway. And your entire choice will be henpecked, wimps and mama's boys, who are so easy to control and who are just the fat herds. Are you ready to saddle yourself with an over-aged child? Are you ready to be a strict mommy for him? OK, I do not mind. But no complaints.
How to convey to a man that you don’t like the manifestations of his anger that frighten you? For example, screams. A woman complains to me: “When my husband gets angry, he starts swearing. When we lived together, it was still tolerable, but our child is growing, and my husband still swears and swears. How can I make sure he doesn’t swear?”
The best way is to simply quietly, calmly tell the man: “Van, it makes me very sad, very upset when you swear. You have the right to be angry, but it’s better without swearing, okay?” The man will at least try to restrain himself and prevent this from happening. Counter anger and aggression do not work: they only add fuel to the fire of a quarrel. A man cares how you feel. And if you calmly and quietly tell him once, twice, three times, he will understand that you care, that this is not just your temporary whim. And in the end he will eradicate this habit from his behavior.
Another example, the other side of the coin. One woman asked me how to make a man not get angry at all. That is, she wants to do whatever she wants, and he wouldn’t even dare to be angry with her. She needs not a person, not a man, not the head of the family, but a teddy bear. It is impossible to completely eliminate anger - because if you really do something bad, break the rules, then the man will be angry: this is the normal state of a person who sees that his rules are being violated. If a man says: “You shouldn’t do this,” and the woman does it anyway, then I guarantee that the man will be angry, and serious problems will begin in the couple.
If a woman wants a man not to be angry at all, then she needs to become an angel, some kind of ideal. We understand that this is impossible, and therefore he will still get angry from time to time. You need to understand this and be prepared for it.
If a woman makes a byaku once, the man will reprimand her. The second time - the reprimand will be stricter and there will be more irritation. The third time - even more. Ultimately (depending on the man’s patience) he will tell the woman that, alas, she is not suitable for a serious relationship. If you don’t want to work on yourself, follow the family rules, let’s go out. Even if a woman for the time being manages to hide her vices behind affection and charm, sooner or later these vices will come out. And the relationship will fall apart.
Conflict prevention. How can a woman prevent conflicts? The first thing is to follow the rules that the man has established for the family. Do not violate them, do not spite the man, do not try to “revenge” him, or push through your desires. Often for a woman, the most important thing is not the essence of the topic, but the last word in the argument. This is the same desire to suppress a man, to subjugate him. You don't have to do that. All the same, you will not subjugate a normal man - you will only arouse anger in your address. And with serial attempts, they will show you the door.
The main thing in a quarrel is not to aggravate it. Better yet, take some chamomile decoction into your mouth and not pretend to be the alpha male in a couple.
Video version of the chapter - my 2021 webinar:
If you see that the dialogue is not going well, take a break
It’s right to talk about problems, but it’s not always worth looking for solutions here and now. If you see that your partner is heated and in an inadequate state, the best solution is to take a step back. When you are both overwhelmed with emotions, you cannot solve anything, but you risk causing each other a lot of pain and aggravating the conflict.
When a situation becomes toxic, remove yourself from it without thinking. Say that you are not ready to continue the dialogue, offer to end the conversation later. It is especially important to do this if your partner is abusive. This is about your safety and mental health, so don't put up with abuse, but stop it immediately.
Anger in children
Anger attacks can occur not only in adults, but also in children. The reasons for this behavior may be general or medical in nature. Diseases common to both adults and children can provoke such behavior. However, children have a number of specific reasons for this behavior.
In adulthood, the processes of excitation and inhibition are correctly balanced. This allows you to act in accordance with the current situation. In childhood, excitation processes predominate over inhibition. Therefore, a child is more emotionally excitable than an adult.
Children, especially those of preschool age, clearly react to the mood of the people around them. Children are able to cry, but after a minute they completely calm down and start laughing. At this age, rapid changes in emotions are normal. The balance of nervous processes develops gradually with age. Feelings become moderate and stable.
Children copy the behavior of adults. Therefore, if a child has outbursts of anger, this is most likely a reflection of the behavior of the people around him. If one of the adults achieves their goals with hysteria, then the child will behave the same way. Sometimes the cause is inconsistency in parenting. Parents cannot cope with their baby's tantrums. As a result, he understands that he can manipulate adults and achieve what he wants.
To avoid such an outcome, it is necessary to protect the child from situations that could traumatize his fragile psyche. You should not speak to anyone in an offensive manner in the presence of your baby. If there is a threat of an offensive dialogue or an outburst of negative emotions, you need to try to smooth out the situation. Distract your child with other, peaceful topics, without allowing him to get hung up on the manifestation of anger on the part of adults.
If a child goes to kindergarten or school, his environment can also have a strong influence on him. If teachers or peers are aggressive, you need to identify it. Only by finding the irritating factor can you reduce its negative impact on the child.
Sometimes children show aggression due to lack of attention from their parents. In this case, it is extremely necessary to reconsider your relationship with the baby. Otherwise, the situation will worsen, having a significant impact on the formation of personality.
Tell me how you feel
When you are dealing with someone who reacts first and thinks later, it will be difficult for you to prove the person that he is wrong. If you point out that he is feeling too emotional about the situation, it will likely only make your partner defensive and make him even angrier. Instead, try talking about how his reaction affects you.
For example, the words “you get mad about every little thing” will probably sound like an accusation to him. And the phrase “I find it difficult to share my feelings when I see you getting so upset” may encourage him to moderate his aggression. Focus not on the person's actions, but on how they affect you.
Try not to be fooled by his emotions.
According to licensed mental health counselor Michelle Henderson, an emotionally reactive person feels emotions very sharply and intensely. He has an extremely short period between emotion and reaction to it. He is unable to take a break to think through his actions.
You can't control your partner's behavior, so focus on managing your reactions. Even if the guy is angry, rude and he is obviously wrong, try not to get involved in his emotionality and not respond in kind. This will only make the situation worse. The best thing you can do is to remain an adequate, respectful interlocutor.
Likely consequences
Loneliness is the result of frequent attacks of aggression
It is important to understand that attacks of anger and rage can lead to serious problems, in particular, the destruction of relationships with loved ones and the creation of problems in making important decisions.
- Outbursts of anger have a negative impact on the work environment. They can hinder career development.
- Loss of social contacts, loneliness. It can occur when a person is too often consumed by aggression, and with his behavior he offends people who are nearby. It is not surprising that over time the circle of his acquaintances decreases until it disappears altogether.
- Over time, outbursts of rage may give way to psychological and physical violence directed at other people.
Set boundaries for yourself
When you know you have a hot-tempered partner, it's especially important to take care of yourself. Often in such a situation, a person tries not to share his feelings and experiences at all, so as not to once again provoke a conflict. But these tactics are bad for your mental health. Think not only about his reaction and emotions, but also about your state.
Learn to set boundaries and clearly convey your feelings and thoughts to your partner. Just because he can't control his emotions doesn't mean you should suppress your feelings.
Biological factors
There are theories that a person is prone to aggression by his very nature, from birth. But social psychologists actively criticize this position, because Research shows that levels of aggression vary markedly across countries.
They accept that a person may have an innate tendency to exhibit various forms of aggression, but this tendency is suppressed by cultural and social factors.
But social psychologists by no means ignore other biological factors. For example, the following hormones influence aggressiveness:
- Serotonin. This is a substance that regulates the strength of human anger. If it is lacking, a person loses the ability to effectively control emotions. Therefore, its level should be maintained at normal levels.
- Testosterone. It used to be that the higher the testosterone level, the more aggressive a person is. But recent studies have shown that levels that are too low or too high lead to aggression. Those. It is also important to monitor its level.
In general, social psychologists believe that biological factors have an influence on a person’s aggressiveness, but are far from decisive.

Unacceptable behavior
Outbursts of anger push a person to rash actions, which make him wrong. There are several socially unacceptable types of behavior when anger arises. This is not what you should do when aggression occurs:
- Ignoring. Refusal to communicate with the offender. This won't solve the problem. The person may not even understand why such a change in the mood of his interlocutor occurred. In this case, the relationship will be damaged, and it will take a lot of effort to mend it.
- Revenge. This is a special form of aggression. Moreover, it appears with a certain delay. A person consciously or subconsciously waits for the moment when the enemy weakens, stops paying attention to the situation, or is distracted by other issues. At this moment, an event may occur that the opponent explains with the words “it just happened.” This also doesn't solve the problem.
- Gossip. This is one of the relatively safe forms of aggression. This allows you to release negative energy without accumulating it inside. However, it is worth understanding that such behavior sooner or later leads to conflicts. This only makes the situation worse. It will be difficult to find a way out of it. The gossiper himself risks his reputation.
- Hitting, physical or emotional abuse, murder. These are the most unacceptable manifestations of aggression. For such actions a person bears criminal liability. Moreover, the harm caused to oneself and others is sometimes almost impossible to mitigate.
Concept of aggression and aggressive behavior
Aggression is a persistent feature in a person, expressed in a readiness for sudden outbursts of anger, and a tendency to perceive the behavior of other people as hostility. The concept refers to any form of behavior that is aimed at humiliating or causing physical harm to another creature (including animals). Aggressors behave destructively, with pronounced negative emotions.
Aggression does not always manifest itself in physical actions and causing bodily harm. The verbal form also includes the expression of negativity through verbal form (threatening hints, curses, offensive statements, swearing, screaming, etc.).
