Do you mean they cry and stuff more?  Like crying is an emotional reaction that tends to occur more frequently in women than in men?
assistant
Yes, exactly!
user
That’s actually something a lot of people have wondered about.  There are lots of theories and ideas for why that is, but there isn’t really a whole lot of solid evidence.

Could it just be from societal norms or do women have different hormonal chemicals in their brains?
user
Hormones are definitely involved.  You see, women have a lot of receptors in their brains for a hormone called oxytocin, which is known as a bonding hormone.  This is the hormone that kicks in during orgasm, when people are cuddling and saying "I love you" to each other.  And oxytocin is also associated with female social bonding and attachment.
