I don't think bravery has anything to do with gender, I think it has to do with the individual. I am a woman, and in my life I've:
Prevented a neighbour's murder
Stopped a car being driven by an unhealthy relative
Just narrowly missed being in the middle of a shoot-out
Stopped someone from breaking into Hubby's and my apt
And quite a few other things.

I agree with wonttakelong that it doesn't have much to do with gender. Most may say men. But we must remember that anything is totally possible for a woman. Especially when a child of ours is threatened! Then all bets are off and get out of the way.

Hi bala,
That has been the case sice time began, men only have strength but women are able to cope with many things but men can't.

I dont think being brave has anything to do with gender
some people are just more brave than others
but if I had to say which gender was braver in general I would say men
women are logic thinkers and always like to plan ahead so when something unexpected (and scarey) comes along we dont handle it to well
men on the other hand arent great planners (no offense Bala) and live more for the moment so they handle the unexpected alot better
besides men seem to love adrenaline highs more than women

Is there a difference between bravery and strength? I think women are very strong and I am aware that of several situations where women have proven to be mentally stronger than men; and did you know most women tolerate pain better than men? Take a look at the monthly cycle and giving birth!
As far as bravery goes, I’m not sure...It depends on the individual’s perception of courage. To me taking care of four children on your own is braver than parachuting from a plane! I am also not sure whether it is gender related; as others here have stated I think it does come down to the individual.
