well I believe that in studies of modern indigneous peoples which have given us insights into prehistoric communal behavior, women were gatherers also. they did hunt if men were away...on a hunting party for example, or at war..............

Once agriculture developed women also participated in farming and harvesting

I think both men and women display the fight or flight response, and men capable of emotion, but there may be a tendency for the responses to be stronger according to gender or also training and socialization can intensify or direct those responses

I also think how we react to each other is a good example - men will show a flight response if a woman is upset with him because he may not be as emotionally mature, and because he can't wrap his mind around what he sees as a "fight response" from a woman....when all we are doing is asking a question....
