Women are more emotional from a decision-making standpoint.

Can you explain this a bit more?

Expand on how one makes decisions without emotion/feeling being a component?

Highly situational but usually Im moved to ask the obvious question (are you okay?) and let body language, tone, vibe and the response to figure out the next move.

Men are just as if not more emotional making decisions, just different emotions, mens are more fear and insecurity, women's more love and expression.

Men view the fear decision making as being responsible, because they don't know how to identify their emotions, like at all, like how most no one listed their emotions in this thread. Every rational decision has emotion behind it, fear.

This is closer to my understanding as well.

Just one example are rates of violent crime perpetrated by men. That is a huge amount of emotion/feeling based decision making.

I just don't buy that women are more emotional/feeling and make more decisions from this space.

How can you make a decision without values, which are based on feelings/emotions? Reasoning does not determine what is worth pursuing. Values, goals and preferences supply that direction (but reason/emotion are not mutually exclusive).

Expression is something different from influence.
